Kriete Truck Centers, headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with 10 locations across the state, recently unveiled a video tribute honoring the individuals of its home state.
Titled Here’s to Wisconsin, the 2-minute video tips a cap to the "farmers, truckers, builders, and doers" driving progress forward. The video can be viewed across Kriete's social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, as well as at Kriete’s website.
“The original intent was something about us,” said David Kriete, president and CEO. “It quickly became clear that our story is inextricably linked to where we grew up, and the hard-working people of Wisconsin, including our associates and the customers we’re so privileged to serve every day. What we hope we’ve ended up with is a sincere expression of that appreciation and gratitude.”
Kriete is a dealer for Mack, Volvo, Hino, and Autocar, and sells trucks for long-haul, medium-duty, and vocational use.
