Mynatt Truck & Equipment Co. Continues to Hire U.S. Veterans!

The upfitting industry has experienced growth in recent years due to the increasing demand for customized vehicles in various sectors. As businesses seek to optimize their operations and tailor their vehicles to specific needs, the services provided by upfitting companies become valuable.

What is Upfitting?

Upfitting is a process of modifying or customizing a vehicle to suit specific needs or requirements. It involves adding or altering equipment, features, or components in a vehicle to enhance its functionality, productivity, or utility. Upfitting is commonly performed on commercial vehicles, such as vans, trucks, or SUVs to optimize them for specific industries or applications.

By upfitting vehicles, businesses (service providers and customers) can optimize their operations, improve efficiency, and ensure that the vehicles are well-suited to their intended purposes. Upfitting companies work closely with customers to understand their requirements and design customized modifications that align with latter's specific needs. 

Veteran Upfitters

Veterans can be excellent upfitters. Veterans are no stranger to experiences in hauling trucks, operating cranes, and maintaining truck-related equipment. Their unique skills, experiences, and qualities gained through military service can translate well into the field of upfitting. Since upfitting requires tailoring vehicles for improved productivity, efficiency, and safety, veterans and their training in following precise procedures, meticulously executing tasks, and maintaining high standards of quality and safety can no doubt make good upfitters.
