Addison, IL, December 7, 2010 — B2B Industrial Packaging LLC, a leading provider of packaging products and equipment, just acquired privately held Pac Fast Corporation, located near Los Angeles in Yorba Linda, Calif.
Although B2B Industrial is already represented in the Los Angeles area, the new location will allow the company to serve West Coast businesses more effectively and efficiently. The acquisition of Pac Fast will also give B2B Industrial a presence in the nail, screw, and staple markets.
Among Pac Fast's many contributions to the depth of B2B Industrial's product and service line is 28 years of experience in nails, screws, and staples. They are authorized distributors for such manufacturers as Senco, Paslode and Aerosmith.
Pac Fast was founded by Herb Burrows in 1982. Burrows and his entire sales team will stay on - joining forces with the existing Northern Calif. B2B Industrial team.
"We are pleased to welcome Pac Fast," said Mike Theriault, president & CEO of B2B Industrial. "Pac Fast not only brings decades of solid packaging experience, but as one of the nail industry leaders, we expect that they will add to our visibility - especially on the West Coast."
The addition is the second California acquisition for B2B Industrial Packaging in a little over a year. In Sept. of 2009, B2B Industrial acquired Western Metals and Strapping in Hayward, Calif.
