It began with no Parts or Service department and only three employees in a temporary facility. From there, the company grew and expanded. MHC is now a multi‑state network of full‑service diesel truck dealerships, leasing and rental operations, transport refrigeration locations, and a finance company which offers a complete array of finance and insurance services.

We believe in fostering an environment that helps employees realize their full potential – a place where you can grow as a person and a professional.
