Valley Power Systems, Inc. began operation in Bakersfield,
California in 1963 as Valley GM Diesel, an authorized
heavy-duty power distributor for General Motors. Twenty-one
years later in June 1984, Valley GM Diesel acquired the
assets and operations of the Southern California distributor
Lawless Detroit Diesel, Inc. which had began operations in 1949. The corporate name was
changed to Valley Detroit Diesel Allison, and the
headquarters moved and became established in the Los Angeles
basin area of City of Industry. Since that time
Valley has grown into a $180 million
company with ten locations servicing several market segments
and representing several product lines. To more
accurately reflect the diverse markets we serve today and
our focus in being a power solutions provider, in January
2004 the corporate name was changed to Valley Power Systems,
Inc.
Today
Valley operates primarily as a franchised distributor and
operator of service facilities for heavy-duty diesel engines
and transmissions for Detroit Diesel and Allison
Transmission. Valley’s large marketing area includes the
southern San Joaquin Valley, Southern California basin, and
the Baja California region of Mexico.
In addition to Detroit Diesel and
Allison Transmission, Valley maintains a substantial
inventory and is an authorized distributor for various
product lines such as Deutz, E-One, Isuzu, John Deere,
Lugger, MTU, Mercedes Benz Industrial, Northern Lights,
Volvo and Waukesha.
Additionally, Valley is an authorized distributor for the
Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD), providing power generation to
seven western continental states, Alaska, Hawaii, Baja
Mexico , and selected international regions, including
countries in Asia and Latin America. Services provided
include product sales, parts, technical support, and field
service.
Our
production/packaging facility is located in the City of
Industry with engineering, procurement, fabrication,
testing, commissioning, and maintenance capabilities. Valley

of over 80 authorized dealers located throughout our market

Our
export department has the capability of providing virtually

customers either outside of the United States or who ship
products outside of the US.
Valley’s management team has established and maintains an
excellent relationship with its customers and dealers. All
