In an effort to continue to grow and expand our reach nationally, we have recently partnered with Hughes Fire Equipment – headquartered in Springfield, Oregon. Hughes Fire Equipment will represent Braun ambulances as our emergency vehicle dealer for Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and Washington. They will also be a Braun Authorized Service Center.

With over 25 years in the Fire & EMS Industry, Hughes Fire Equipment brings great value to the Braun dealer network. The family-owned and operated dealership was originally established to sell Pierce fire trucks. Over the years, they’ve expanded to include an extensive list of offerings designed to serve their fire service customers as a one-stop-shop. We are looking forward to working with them as they educate their customers on Braun ambulances, and begin to design, build, and deliver our handcrafted units.
