AD Lift Joins KION North America Dealer Network

SUMMERVILLE, S.C. — Missouri-based equipment dealer, AD Lift Truck is the newest member of KION North America’s dealer distribution network. They will offer sales and service support to parts of Missouri and Illinois.

Rudy Dodorico, Sr. founded AD Lift Truck in 1977. The company is still family owned and operated by his two sons, Rudy Dodorico, Jr., who serves as president and CEO, and Gus Dodorico as vice president. They specialize in new and used equipment sales, equipment rentals, parts and service.
