Volvo CE names dealer of the year and uptime dealer of the year

Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE), Shippensburg, Pa., has named Alta Equipment Co., Livonia, Mich., as its 2020 Dealer of the Year in North America.

The Dealer of the Year award recognizes the North American dealership that best promotes the Volvo brand and the company’s core strategies: to provide the highest uptime in the industry, offer unique customer solutions and ensure the best value at any stage in a machine’s lifecycle.

“The 2020 Dealer of the Year award shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given Alta Equipment’s notable successes and recent bold investments,” said Stephen Roy, president of Region North America, Volvo CE. “They continue to demonstrate their commitment to the construction equipment industry through their ‘customer first’ and ‘uptime matters’ mantras, plus their ability to replicate and execute that commitment into new territories.”

Volvo CE also recognized Ascendum Machinery, Huntersville, N.C., as its 2020 Uptime Dealer of the Year.

The Uptime Dealer of the Year award recognizes the North American dealership that exhibits Volvo’s commitment to being the No. 1 uptime provider in the construction industry by demonstrating its Service Commitment pledge to provide customers unrivalled service and support.

“In an industry where customer uptime can make or break their business, Ascendum has shown incredible dedication not only to their uptime, but to the relationships that help build a continued partnership for success,” Roy said.
