The Equipment Corporation of America (ECA) has been awarded the sales territory of Western Canada by BAUER Maschinen and BAUER Equipment America. Foundation contractors in Western Canada can expect the same wide range of equipment, services, and parts ECA and ECA Canada offer in the Eastern United States and Canada.
"We're very excited about expanding our operations into Western Canada," says Roy Kern, ECA president and CEO. "We'll be locally supplying and stocking a full complement of BAUER products and accessories including BG drilling rigs, RTG piling equipment, KLEMM small diameter drills, BAUER MAT/Obermann slurry handling, mixing, and pumping equipment, MC duty-cycle cranes, and cutters."
ECA has been serving Eastern Canada as ECA Canada Company since 1999 through its Uxbridge, Ontario headquarters. This was a natural progression for BAUER to grow its presence in the western provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia.
ECA is planning to open a full-service facility in the Vancouver area with sales, parts, and services for all product lines. While existing employees will have an opportunity to relocate, ECA is ready to hire new local staff for the new branch.
