In order to increase its market share in the Florida fire and rescue industry, Acela Truck Company announced the signing of Matheny Fire & Emergency, a branch of Matheny Motor Truck Company, as its newest authorized dealer. 

Matheny Fire & Emergency will market Acela's cutting-edge emergency response vehicle options throughout Florida through their new relationship, initially concentrating on the company's extremely capable Monterra High Water Flood Rescue Trucks and the Acela Breacher.

"We are thrilled to welcome Matheny Fire & Emergency EMS Division as Acela's first authorized dealer in Florida," said David Ronsen, president of Acela Truck Company. "Florida represents a tremendous opportunity for Acela, particularly given the state's unique emergency response challenges related to hurricanes, flooding, and disaster preparedness. Just as important, we're excited to partner with an organization that shares our commitment to customer service, technical expertise, and supporting first responders. Matheny has earned an outstanding reputation throughout the fire and EMS community, and we couldn't ask for a better partner to introduce Acela's innovative vehicle solutions to agencies across Florida."

"We're excited to partner with Acela Truck Company and introduce their innovative vehicle solutions to fire and EMS agencies across Florida," said Tim Allaband, Matheny Fire & Emergency vice president. "Acela has built a reputation for developing purpose-driven products that solve real-world challenges for first responders. From the versatile Breacher platform to the Monterra High Water Flood Rescue Truck, these vehicles deliver capabilities that agencies simply can't find elsewhere. As Florida departments continue to prepare for hurricanes, flooding, and complex rescue operations, we're proud to represent a company that is bringing such forward-thinking and mission-focused solutions to the market."
