UniCarriers names President's Award winner
Chicago, IL. United States

UniCarriers Americas Corporation (UCA) has named Vegusa Maquinaria of Aguascalientes, Mexico as its President's Award winner.
UCA recently honoured its top 10 dealers with the first-ever UniCarriers Americas' President's Club Award Dinner, which replaced the Nissan Nine. As part of the celebration, UCA selected Vegusa Maquinaria as its stand-out dealer. To earn this prestigious award, a dealership must excel in many areas, including new equipment sales, parts sales, marketshare and service excellence. The dealer must also possess the characteristics of UCA's Never Quit attitude, always going the extra mile and accepting any and all challenges.
This is the first time in 26 years that the award was presented to a dealer in Latin America.
