Atlantic Emergency Solutions is the new Pierce apparatus dealer for North Carolina

Pierce Manufacturing, an Oshkosh Corporation company, recently announced that Atlantic Emergency Solutions is the new Pierce apparatus dealer for North Carolina, expanding its current territory that includes Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, the District of Columbia, and portions of West Virginia.

The change is prompted by the retirement of Triad Fire Inc. founder, Dick Hastings. Gerald Sapp (partner at Triad Fire) will join Atlantic Emergency Solutions as vice president of sales, North Carolina, and remain involved with all North Carolina customers.

“This expansion of its responsibilities recognizes that Atlantic Emergency Solutions has established itself as a well respected provider of fire and emergency vehicles and equipment,” said Dan Peters, Pierce Manufacturing vice president of sales. “With Gerald joining the Atlantic Emergency Solutions team, we expect this will be a seamless transition. We are thankful for the many contributions of Dick Hastings and Triad.”

“We’re excited to grow our territory representing Pierce fire and rescue apparatus throughout North Carolina, and to bring on Gerald Sapp to ensure a smooth transition and maintain excellent customer service,” said Joe Pack, owner and president of Atlantic Emergency Solutions. “We pledge to provide excellent service and support to the fire and emergency services in North Carolina.”
