From a mobile install shop to TikTok fame and a national cabinetry brand | Larry Kohan and Ryan Dodd of 10-75 Emergency Vehicles The 24/48

    • Entrepreneurship

Larry Kohan is a veteran fire service and law enforcement officer with 32 years of experience. After several years of selling command vehicles on the side, he spotted an opportunity in the market and started what is now known as 10-75 Emergency Vehicles.

His first employee was Ryan Dodd, who has been volunteering at Franklin Lakes with Larry for 14 years. Ryan was only 18 when he joined 10-75, with no formal business training or experience. He taught himself everything he needed to know, from automotive wiring to woodworking, and was passionate about creating something that could help those who help others.

With Larry's business knowledge and Ryan's creative vision, they grew the company into one of the most prominent mobile install and custom vehicle upfitting companies in the Northeast. As they look toward the future, they’re focused on growth, particularly via their cabinetry brand 1st In Emergency Products.
