Doonan to Open New Flatbed Trailer Plant
Doonan Specialized Trailer announced it has gutted a 25,000-square-foot manufacturing plant, previously used to stall-build custom trailer products, and created a high-efficiency flatbed trailer plant.
The new plant will allow Doonan to be more price competitive in the volume-build flatbed trailer market, the Great Bend, Kansas-based company said.
“We look forward to the many new market opportunities this new plant brings Doonan,” said Mike Gordy, a co-manager for the company.
Construction began early this summer, with high-efficiency flatbed trailer production slated to begin in January.
Doonan still will build custom trailer products in its main factory, separate from the new plant, according to the company.
