Posted: December 1, 2010
Mori Seiki (Hoffman Estates, IL) entered into a distribution agreement earlier this year with Ellison Technologies to serve and support Canada.
“Having Ellison Technologies as our new exclusive distributor in Canada will allow us to leverage our valued partnership and synergy we currently share in the U.S.,” said Jim Okada, president of Mori Seiki Americas.
For the past 14 years, Ellison Technologies has supported the Mori Seiki line in British Columbia with great success. Additionally, Ellison Technologies brings over 55 years of machine tool experience in the United States and is known in the industry as a total manufacturing solutions provider. This expansion makes Ellison Technologies the largest machine tool distributor in North America.
“We’re very excited about expanded partnership with Mori Seiki in Canada,” said Graham Hooper, president of Ellison Technologies’ Western Region and Canada. “We pride ourselves on the fact we’ve been able to grow as a result of the success and growth of our customers. We look forward to this continued partnership approach with the Canadian market by enabling them to become globally competitive through the integration of advanced technology, robotic automation and engineering capabilities.”
Ellison Technologies, in full partnership with Mori Seiki, will begin operations in a new facility in Mississauga, Ontario.
