The all-aluminum manufacturer is currently operating two manufacturing facilities producing seven lines of trailers and approximately 60 models . They include dump , equipment tilt-deck , deck-over , landscape , utility and gravity tilt-deck trailers . The facilities cover the Northeast and Northwest coasts , and since their breakout year in 2022 , they now have their sights set on a location somewhere in the Midwest , giving them the ability to cover the US more efficiently . Wiebe explains “ The location for expansion has two important considerations , the obvious which is how it accelerates what we are already doing comes first but second and just as important is community . We want to know that we are helping improve people ’ s lives if we can , so if we found a location where we could accomplish that , it would be ideal . We partner with local schools in co-op and internship programs to develop future leaders in our organization and provide hands-on educational opportunities for high school youth . In addition , we are in discussions to formalize an at-risk youth program that will include diversionary opportunities for juvenile delinquents and offer a visionary path to a rewarding career and a way out of the crime / jail cycle through at work and after work mentorship .”
Looking forward , Nordtek ’ s launching an aggressive innovation program in which they will be releasing a new innovative complementary product for trailers every six months for the next three years . “ Along with the expansion , we are all about innovation . This roll-out will include products that have never been developed until now and we are really looking forward to how they are received ,” says Wiebe .
