Founded in 1972 with a vision to support Louisiana’s vital trucking industry, Southwest Sales began as a small parts supplier in Shreveport. Through decades of hurricanes, economic shifts, and industry evolution, one constant remained: our commitment to keeping trucks operational and businesses moving. What started as a single counter has grown into Louisiana’s comprehensive truck service provider with 4 locations, yet we’ve never lost our family-owned values or local focus.
