About the Company

Paccar

Builds heavy trucks and engines for fleets

PACCAR designs and builds medium- and heavy-duty trucks for freight carriers, builders and other fleet operators, selling them under three brands: Kenworth and Peterbilt in North America and DAF in Europe and beyond. Its trucks haul long-distance freight, make local deliveries and work on construction and logging sites, and they are sold and serviced through independent dealers worldwide. The company makes most of its money selling trucks, and it also earns steady revenue from selling replacement parts and from loans and leases to truck buyers. PACCAR traces its roots to a Seattle rail car maker founded in 1905 and is based in Bellevue, Washington.
