St. Louis, MO (October 28, 2015) ??? CSTK Inc., a diversified distributor of transportation, construction and communications equipment and related services, was honored as a Development of the Year during the 2015 Mayor’s Business Celebration Luncheon. The annual event held by Mayor Francis G. Slay and the St. Louis Development Corporation (SLDC) awards local businesses for their positive impact on the St. Louis Metropolitan area. Other award winners include IKEA and Shriners Hospitals for Children.

The new 56,000 sq. ft. facility replaced the previous St. Louis location which has operated in the region for over 20 years. Strategically positioned in the heart of local industrial operations, CSTK St. Louis offers service and sales for a diverse lineup of transportation resources including trailer repair, aftermarket parts and installation. With construction finished in early 2015, the doors officially opened April 1^st.

In addition to serving as the area’s Thermo King dealership, the St. Louis branch houses CSTK subsidiary Kahn Truck Equipment. Specializing in custom mechanics and service trucks for heavy equipment dealers, Kahn Truck Equipment will host operations within the same building. CSTK St. Louis is conveniently located on Carrie Avenue off of North Broadway at Interstate 70.

In 2014, CSTK appointed Green Street St. Louis to design and develop the new building. Green Street is a commercial real estate development company offering a total business solution to entrepreneurial-minded businesses. Their unique vision that marries sustainable design with practical layouts distinguished the firm in the eyes of CSTK St. Louis General Manager Allen Lane:

???Our company is forever linked to creating an unrivaled customer experience so we passionately strive to provide the best products, service and parts to the transportation industry. As we look into the future, we see opportunities to develop our business while focusing on creating an environmentally efficient presence in the region.???
