ABOUT SWANKS & SONS CHROME SHOP
With more than 20 years in the industry, we know a few things about truck drivers. Close to Exit 117 on I-65, Swanks and Sons Chrome Shop is conveniently located in Shepherdsville, KY. Chris Swanks got started in nearby Louisville, home of the Mid-America Trucking Show.
CHRIS’S STORY
My family is the reason I work so hard. My gorgeous wife was my high school sweetheart, and we’ve been together since 1998! My dream with Swanks and Sons isn’t just a successful business—it’s a legacy for my three sons to learn about hard work and eventually support families of their own.
2000’s
As a shipping supervisor at a lumber yard, I loaded and unloaded semi-trucks. It was easy to see how the best drivers really care about their equipment.
2005
I went to truck shows (and saw a lot of polished chrome) as a recruiter for one of America’s largest owner operator companies.
2007
My first business served OTR truckers with headache racks, tool boxes, and other products for cargo securement.
2017
A banker from the local TV version of Sharktank helped me lease a property. We started near the HQ of the owner operator fleet where I had recruited so many truckers.
