The expanded product offerings resulting from the acquisition include a wide range of brands, including Parker Hannifin pneumatic, hydraulic, filtration and electromechanical products, as well as ACE Controls, SKF, Perma, Enerpac, Dixon, NOSHOK, and Exotic Air Systems. The expanded products along with increased inventory position the Muskegon store as a leading industrial supplier to West Michigan’s growing manufacturing sector.
“Our remodeled Muskegon location offers an unmatched level of support for customers.” Steve Orlando, President said. “With our nineteen store locations and dedicated account and product sales team, we are fully equipped to meet all customer needs, whether a custom hydraulic power unit, compressor, or hose assembly.”
