Carolina Cat Celebrates Gastonia Grand Opening
Carolina 
Cat officially celebrated the grand opening of its new Gastonia branch on June 17, welcoming customers, community partners, Caterpillar representatives, and employees to a state-of-the-art facility designed to better serve western North Carolina. The opening marks an important milestone for Carolina Cat as the company continues its 100th anniversary celebration and invests in the future of the region. Built for Our Customers
Located at 108 Archie Whitesides Road in Gastonia, the 35,605-square-foot facility sits on 20 acres and supports Carolina Cat’s construction, rental, service, parts, and power systems operations.
The new location was built with customers in mind. Expanded service capabilities, increased parts availability, and dedicated spaces for equipment support enable the Gastonia team to respond quickly and efficiently to customer needs across the region. The service shop features 13 service bays measuring 42 feet long, as well as four 5-ton overhead cranes designed to support maintenance and repair work on customer equipment. The facility also offers ample space for technicians, inventory, and equipment, helping minimize downtime and keep customer operations moving.
A Commitment to Western North Carolina
For Carolina Cat, the Gastonia investment is focused on helping customers do their jobs better, faster, and more efficiently. The branch’s strategic location expands access to equipment, rental solutions, parts inventory, and expert service throughout western North Carolina.
As Carolina Cat enters its next century of service, the Gastonia branch reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to partnership, reliability, and customer success. The facility will support industries across the region, including construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, power generation, landscaping, aggregates, and more.
