ML Utilities has acquired Chattanooga-based Cherokee Truck Equipment. Through the acquisition, ML Utilities has expanded its operational territory and scope of services while doubling the size of its team.

The acquisition includes the addition of Cherokee’s 20,000-square-foot facility in Chattanooga and its 15,000-square-foot branch in Mableton, Georgia.

ML Utilities’ technicians support fleet owners and customers throughout Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio.

Established in 1981, Cherokee sells new and used truck equipment and upfits truck packages for railroad operations.

The company’s services include equipment diagnosis, testing, inspections, preventative maintenance and repairs, as well as a full-service web-based parts and equipment division, which operates in a stand-alone location, also based in Chattanooga.
