August 29, 2011: Hi-Tech Fasteners, Inc Expands to Canada!
Hi-Tech Fasteners, Inc of Frederick, Maryland, announced today the launching of Hi-Tech Fasteners--Canada. This new entity will be based in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) of Ontario and will service all customers throughout Canada.
"Given how much our sales in Canada have grown the past few years, it was clear to us the time was right to enter this marketplace on a full-time basis," said Hi-Tech Fasteners President Tom Waller. "We believe our aggressive inventory strategy fills a void in Canada, and offers us greater partnering opportunities with our customer base than we have ever had before."
During the expansion announcement, General Manager Mark Mertz and Sales Manager Mark Williams introduced Steve Hill, formerly of Rush Electronics Ltd (Mississauga, ON), as the sales manager for Hi-Tech Fasteners--Canada.
"In opening a new venture such as this, we felt it was important to tap someone with detailed knowledge of the products we offer and the Canadian marketplace as a whole," Mertz said. "Given Steve's background and experience with both the customer base and our valued suppliers, we believe we found the perfect person for the job."
Hi-Tech Fasteners, Inc. is a factory authorized stocking distributor for dozens of leading engineered fastener, electronic hardware, and mechanical component lines specified by the electronics, telecommunications, medical, computer, aerospace, instrumentation, and other high-tech and commercial industries.
