Slate Will Build a $7.8M Vinyl Wrap Kit Manufacturing Fulfillment Facility In Kentucky

Dodge had a similar thing a few years ago. On their fleet site you could pre-build your wrap and they'd ship you your RAM pickup pre-wrapped for your business. Makes sense they'd go this route as it ensures they get priority for customer orders instead of some third party trying to fit in potentially 100K truck orders on top of other clients.

I really doubt they would ship trucks to Kentucky to wrap then ship on to the fleet customers that's just the most expensive way possible to do it. More likely the Kentucky facility will prep and ship wraps around the country, and if a fleet needs trucks wrapped, the trucks and wraps will meet up somewhere closer to their end destination, and be wrapped by someone contracted to do it.

IMHO the big reveal will happen when Slate releases the Slate U videos. Most of those will have to be based on production vehicles. That should give us some detailed information of the build and care of the Slate. The instructions for applying the wraps will be interesting to watch. Will they cover removal? Also note; This is the start of Q2 of '26. We should start seeing stuff happening at the Warsaw plant.
