Sourcing and selling upfitted commercial vehicles is seamless today because of this company | Kathryn Schifferle

For consumers, buying a vehicle has always been a simple transaction. You decide on a make and model you like and search the dealerships near you to see where it’s available.

But for decades, this wasn’t the case for upfitted commercial vehicles. If a plumber, for example, needed a truck — there was no obvious way to find out where to purchase that vehicle with the appropriate upfitting for the job. The same was true for all small fleets, including dump trucks, catering vans and ambulances. There was no data on these vehicles.

That’s when Work Truck Solutions stepped. The company has revolutionized — and continues to innovate — the software available to enable commercial vehicles to be listed and advertised in a seamless and accessible way.
