    MILWAUKEE and NEW YORK, Sept. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Douglas Dynamics, Inc. (NYSE:PLOW), or the "Company", North America's premier manufacturer and upfitter of commercial work truck attachments and equipment, today announced the successful completion of a sale-leaseback transaction with TPG Angelo Gordon, a diversified credit and real estate investing platform within TPG Inc.
