True North Teams with Total Tire Solutions
True North Fleet Services is partnering with Baton Rouge, La.-based Total Tire Solutions LLC as True North grows its footprint.
"True North continues to strategically scale across the southern United States and diversify its service capabilities to include traditional heavy-duty truck, industrial, construction and agriculture vehicle repairs," say True North officials.
"We’re pleased to welcome Aubrey 'Lynn Wiggins Jr. and his team to the True North platform and support them in their next phase of growth,” says Gary Price, CEO of True North Fleet Services. “Total Tire has built a strong reputation throughout southern Louisiana for high-quality repairs, expansive service offerings and a customer-first approach – providing an excellent foundation for future development. As the fleet services industry continues to evolve and consolidate, True North remains committed to supporting founder-led businesses like Total Tire as they scale and compete in their local markets, ensuring each vehicle serviced is road-ready.”
Founded in 2006, Total Tire provides tire and repair services for trucks, trailers, heavy equipment and specialty equipment. With three locations in Louisiana, the commercial tire dealership also offers 24/7 emergency roadside assistance and other services.
"As part of the True North platform, Total Tire gains access to True North’s cutting-edge systems, administrative services and capital resources to help accelerate its growth," say True North officials.
"This partnership is a significant milestone for our business and a credit to the enduring loyalty of our customers and the work of our talented team," adds Wiggins. "For 20 years, our priority has been to provide Baton Rouge and southern Louisiana drivers with top-quality products and unmatched services at a good price. With True North’s backing, we’ll continue to provide first-rate service and further develop our premium selection of products and services, while enhancing employee benefits and spreading our footprint into new markets. I am thrilled to see what the next chapter holds.”
True North’s partnership with Total Tire follows its previously announced investments in Georgia-based operators Elite Diesel and Myles Truck Repair, as well as Philadelphia, Pa.-based PennFleet and San Antonio, Texas-based Billy Bob’s Repair & Tire.
"True North’s continued success is supported by Garnett Station Partners, a New York-based principal investment firm that manages approximately $4 billion of assets."
