PRESS RELEASE

VAN WERT, OH—Crestline Ambulances announced Dec. 19, 2024, an expansion of its U.S. dealer network. Proliner Rescue is the new partner of choice for Crestline Ambulances in Nassau and Suffolk counties, NY. The partnership will strengthen the availability and service support for Crestline's dependable and practical ambulance solutions on Long Island.

"It's critically important that our dealer network supports and reflects our corporate vision of being the partner of choice for new ambulances," says Kris Turner, U.S. channel development director of Demers Ambulances USA Inc. "As one of the leading ambulance manufacturers in North America, we choose our partners wisely, and Proliner Rescue is no exception. Their 20,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility is strategically positioned in Medford, New York, making them an ideal dealership for Nassau and Suffolk counties. We are truly excited about working with them. Our regional customers will benefit greatly from their knowledge, expertise, and convenient location."

Nassau and Suffolk counties combine to represent the densely populated continental island of Long Island in southeastern New York. Together, 126 fire districts and over 180 fire departments serve an estimated 8 million people on the island. Furthermore, over 175 of those fire departments comprise all volunteer members. With over 1,400 square miles and an established Fire/EMS culture, Long Island is an important region for new ambulance sales and service.

Proliner Rescue was established in 1996, offering nearly 30 years of rescue vehicle sales and service. They are an independently owned and operated family business that sells top-quality fire apparatus, ambulances, rescue vehicles, and chief's cars. The dealership does everything in-house, from mechanical repair to paint and collision, tool mounting and fabrication, remounts, lettering and pinstriping, electrical wiring, custom command boxes, nets and harnesses, protective spray-on coatings, and parts and accessories. Located off Exit 65 on the Long Island Expressway, they are committed to helping the island's Fire, Rescue, and EMS professionals serve their communities by delivering reliable vehicles and first-class service and support.

"The addition of Crestline to our portfolio allows us to offer a dependable, practical ambulance model to departments of all sizes, specifically those seeking a fleet-centric option,” says Jaelle Georgiou, director of operations for Proliner. “We think the CCL 150 model will be a great fit for the many volunteer departments and private agencies on the island, offering a standardized solution at an affordable price. We are excited to introduce the brand to our customers, both new and old, and look forward to better serving them through this new line."

The appointment of Proliner Rescue underscores the continuous commitment of Crestline to enhance its dealer network, ensuring that customers receive the best in ambulance manufacturing and unparalleled after-sales support. This partnership is a testament to both organizations' joint vision of saving lives by delivering reliable, high-quality emergency vehicles.
