Edmonton Kenworth received the 2011 Kenworth Dealer of the Year Award for the United States and Canada at the annual Kenworth Dealer Meeting held recently in Columbus, Ohio.
“There are many outstanding Kenworth dealers, so this award is certainly a very special achievement,” says Gary King, president of Edmonton Kenworth. “We especially thank our many customers for their business, and we look forward to continuing to provide them with excellent support and Kenworth’s complete range of heavy- and medium-duty trucks.”
Edmonton Kenworth was selected from among Kenworth’s six Gold Award winners for 2011. Other Gold Award winners are GreatWest Kenworth (Calgary, Alberta), Kenworth of South Louisiana (Gray, La.), MHC Kenworth – Colorado (Denver), MHC Kenworth-Oklahoma (Oklahoma City) and Wallwork Kenworth (Fargo, N.D.).
“Edmonton Kenworth had an outstanding performance during 2011,” says Gary Moore, Kenworth general manager and Paccar vice president. “Edmonton Kenworth sold and leased a very significant number of Kenworth trucks, achieved strong market share in both heavy- and medium-duty truck sales, operated excellent facilities and provided exceptional customer support.”

Edmonton Kenworth now has received three Kenworth Dealer of the Year awards, eight Gold Awards and a Kenworth Customer Support Dealer of the Year award in the past 11 years.
