LISLE, Ill. — IC Bus announced on Tuesday the six winners of its annual Pursuit of Excellence dealership award.

This year’s winners are RWC Group of Alaska and Arizona; International Trucks of Hawaii LLC in Kapolei, Hawaii; Maxim Truck & Trailer Inc. in Winnipeg, Manitoba; Summit Truck Group of Mississippi; Longhorn Bus Sales LLC in Houston, Texas; and Midwest Transit Equipment in Kankakee, Illinois.

The awards are based on dealer performance in several key areas in 2015, including growing market share and exceeding annual sales plans. In addition, dealers were required to meet community service requirements in order to be eligible to receive recognition.
