Talbert Manufacturing named Hale Trailer Brake & Wheel, headquartered in Voorhees, New Jersey, as its top dealer for the 10th straight year. This award recognizes a Talbert dealer for outstanding performance in selling trailers, service and parts. In 2017, Hale sold more parts than any other Talbert dealer.
“Hale has been a huge driving force for the growth and success of Talbert trailers on the East Coast with twelve locations from Maine to Florida,” said Troy Geisler, Talbert Manufacturing vice president of sales and marketing. “Accomplishments like this are a great example of what can be achieved with the right partnerships and show what a commitment to this industry looks like.”

Talbert also named Remorques Lewis as one of the Top 10 dealers and its Most Improved Dealer of 2017.
“Remorques Lewis more than doubled its 2016 Talbert sales.” Geisler said. “But that’s more than a number. It’s being with customers when they need it, friendly and fast service and repairs, and a dedication to this business — something we recognize in a lot of our dealers, but Remorques has done particularly well.”
