ProMach completes acquisition of STOCK America

The US-based manufacturing company, ProMach, has continued to enhance its portfolio offering following the purchase of STOCK America, according to Supply Chain Management Review.

As the worldwide leader in packaging machinery solutions, the introduction of STOCK will see the expansion of ProMach’s growing line-up of solutions for the resort room.

Mark Anderson, ProMach President and CEO, commented: “We’re pleased to welcome the outstanding Stock team to ProMach. We were already well-positioned with Allpax, a leading retort product brand, in our portfolio. The addition of Stock and their large installed base of innovative sterilization equipment bolsters our customer base, extends our keystone retort product line-up, and strengthens our capability to provide the most comprehensive sterilization solutions in the food processing industry. We will invest in Stock so they can continue providing industry leading solutions and support to their customers.”
