Ferrara Fire Apparatus is an American manufacturer of heavy-duty emergency service equipment. The firm is based in Holden, Louisiana, and was founded by Chris Ferrara.

Ferrara offers a custom-design process that allows customer to influence how their truck is built. The manufacturing facility, with a floor area of nearly 300,000 square feet, was constructed by Firmin Construction Corporation.

In 2017, Ferrara Fire Apparatus became a wholly owned subsidiary after being acquired by the REV Group.

Ferrara's new Inundator Super Pumper is recognized as the world's largest capacity NFPA-rated fire engine. This truck features a pump capable of delivering 5500 GPM from draft. This rate can increase to 10,000 GPM or more if the pump intake is connected to a pressurized source, such as a municipal water source.
