WESCO Extends Sponsorship of Ty Dillon’s Richard Childress Racing Car for Six 2013 Races

WESCO International has agreed to renew its primary sponsorship of Ty Dillon and Richard Childress Racing’s No. 33 Chevrolet Camaro for six races during the 2013 NASCAR Nationwide Series season.

WESCO will also serve as an associate sponsor on Dillon’s No. 3 Bass Pro Shops Chevrolet in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series for all races in 2013.

WESCO joined RCR in 2012 as the primary sponsor for two Nationwide Series events with Dillon: Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Richmond International Raceway where Dillon posted third and seventh-place finishes, respectively.

“I’m looking forward tothis upcoming season in the Nationwide Series,” Dillon said. “I’m honored to have the opportunity to race under the WESCO colors and represent their supplier partners on the race track. WESCO and RCR have similar values and that makes us a great team.” 

“WESCO is proud to sponsor Ty Dillon and the No. 33 car for the 2013 season,” said John Engel, Chairman, President and CEO of WESCO International. “We look forward to the exposure and brand recognition this type of sponsorship brings to WESCO. It creates opportunities for us to strengthen our customer and supplier relationships and engage with other companies who do business in the markets we serve.”

WESCO is a leading full-line wholesale distributor of electrical, industrial, utility and communications products and advanced supply chain procurement services.
