Sun Line also sells some of the vehicles as used cars. In 2020, revenue was generated from sales of parts, scrap, and vehicles. The Company primarily differentiates itself in the competitive landscape by providing great service.
Generational Equity Executive Managing Director of M&A – Central Region, Michael Goss, and his team lead by Senior M&A Advisor, Chris Barnard, with support from Vice President, M&A, Jacob Mangalath successfully closed the deal. Senior Managing Director DeWayne Nelon established the initial relationship with Sun Line.
“We were privileged to help Gary and Caroline Wendel retire as well as help Caroline's father Bruce Chase divest his final piece of a long upstanding legacy,” said Barnard.
Barnard added, “What a great hand-off to Roger Cassill who grew up pulling parts out of this very yard. Roger was a pleasure to work with and we're certain the Sun Line business is in very good hands.”
