Number of Employees:\u00a0<\/strong>Local – 65. Nationwide – around 2,400.<\/p>\n

Describe what your organization does in two sentences.\u00a0<\/strong>We are a complete solutions provider for a wide variety of vocations. We offer uplifting Knapheide work truck bodies and accessories, and equipment from top vehicle suppliers nationwide.<\/p>\n

Who do you serve?\u00a0<\/strong>We serve commercial truck dealers and end users in North Central Kentucky, Southern Indiana, and Southwest Ohio. We also serve large fleet organizations.<\/p>\n

One fact you may not know about my organization is…<\/strong> Knapheide began as a wagon company in 1848 and also made cabs for the Ford Model T.<\/p>\n

What sets your business apart from others in the way you attract and retain talent?\u00a0<\/strong>Knapheide is a family-owned business run by the sixth generation of the Knapheide family. We take care of our employees and have some that have been with us for as many as 50 years!<\/p>\n
