OTC Industrial Technologies (OTC), an industrial equipment service provider and distributor headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, has partnered with Quincy Compressor.
The alliance will expand Quincy’s presence into OTC locations in Phoenix and Las Vegas and will provide OTC with greater reach within the Alabama region.
Established in 1963, OTC is one of the largest industrial distributors and service providers in the US offering solutions for industrial motion control, factory automation, fluid power, pumping systems, spray finishing, power transmission, and compressed air systems.
In business since 1920, Quincy Compressor is headquartered in Bay Minette, Alabama, and is a leading designer and manufacturer of reciprocating and rotary screw air compressors, vacuum pumps, and a full line of air treatment components (see image at top).
The two companies already have a previous business relationship and have now decided to align strategic focus and deepen their partnership. The expansion into the southwest amplifies OTC’s presence in the region. The investment also supports Quincy’s market growth in a key territory. With this newest collaboration, OTC and Quincy, both leaders in the compressed air industry, will be poised to deliver superior solutions to customers in the southwestern US.
“I’m very excited to gain a footprint in the Southwest compressed air market," said Daniel Knapp, the director of sales at OTC. "Partnering with Quincy over the past five years has been an outstanding experience. I have no doubt we will see the same success as we enter Arizona and Southern Nevada. We’re excited to not only expand our compressed air distribution business, but leverage resources to grow our DIRECTAIR solution in the Western portion of the US. It’s a fun time to be a part of the OTC family.”
Adam Gibbs, the president of air supply at OTC, echoed the positive impact the expansion will have. “As OTC continues to expand west, partnering with Quincy provides opportunities to offer best-in-class support for compressed air services for Arizona and Nevada.
"With Quincy’s full line of compressed air products and OTC’s vast expertise, I have no doubt we will have a winning combination well suited to help the industrial market grow in the Southwest.”
Added Chris Scarborough, vice president of distribution for Quincy Compressors: “This is a great opportunity for Quincy Compressor to build upon our relationship with a fantastic partner in the southwestern US.
"After five successful years of collaboration in the Southeast, this new Quincy/OTC venture is a win for both of us, ensuring a high level of satisfaction for compressed air customers in this market. [It's a] great time to expand our footprint with a consistently successful organization; we’re very excited to see this grow.”
