A Wisconsin company will build 104 fire trucks for the Republic of Ghana. Pierce Manufacturing, part of the Oshkosh Corporation, has received a $31-million-order to build the vehicles. They’ll help Ghana’s National Fire Service expand its number of stations around that country from 136 to 202. In a statement, Oshkosh said a Pierce dealership in South Africa will open a service facility in Ghana to maintain the new trucks. Those vehicles are supposed to be delivered by early next year. Oshkosh CEO Charlie Szews says the new order is a major step for Pierce Manufacturing in its efforts to expand worldwide. Source: Pierce County Herald
