Wabash National Announces Consolidation of Its Platform Manufacturing Facilities

2009-11-03 09:19 ET - News Release

LAFAYETTE, IN -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 11/03/09

Wabash National Corporation (NYSE: WNC) today announced that it's wholly owned subsidiary, Transcraft ® Corporation, a manufacturer of flatbed, drop deck, dump trailers and truck bodies, has agreed on the terms of a sale of its Anna, Illinois production facility and will consolidate its operations into its Cadiz, Kentucky facility. Platform production at the Anna facility will cease sometime in the first half of 2010, at which time the new production lines at the Cadiz production facility will be fully operational.

"These types of decisions are always difficult to make, especially when it affects associates, but due to the current economic climate we are faced with the need to further right size our operating footprint and reduce our cost structure. We expect this to be a seamless transition in production due to utilization of excess manufacturing equipment, which should have no impact to our customers," said Terry Campbell, General Manager of Transcraft Corporation.
