Commercial Vehicle Business Network - Breaking News

WALK THE 2024 WORK TRUCK WEEK FLOOR WITH US!

FEBRUARY 2024 PROPUBS —
NEW EDITION/ISSUE OUT APRIL 2024

 

The Cornerstone

Relationships are how commercial vehicle business was historically built and it’s still the cornerstone of all we do. Use technology to connect, but when you can meet face-to-face, do so, such as at conventions/expos like NADA and Work Truck Week. Hopefully I’ll see YOU at some of these shows throughout the year. 

The mission of the CVBNetwork is to be the toolbox of resources for the entirety of the commercial vehicle ecosystem:

  • To support the entire network of businesses in the ecosystem and increase their connectedness through the exchange of ideas with peers;
  • To offer education plus exposure to resources, procedures and best practices being used by others in the industry;
  • To be a meeting place and hub of resources, information, stories and breaking news.
