Benz Oil, of Milwaukee, Wis., announced recently that it has acquired metalworking fluid blender Nocco Oil Products Inc.
The deal expands product offerings from Benz, which has blended and marketed primarily industrial and construction lubricants, as well automotive oils.
Its most significant in that it expands the types of products we sell, Benz President Dixon W. Benz said, adding that customers of both companies will now have a wider array of products to choose. This is important in todays business environment as companies reduce the number of suppliers they do business with.
Benz said Nocco would add incrementally to the volume of his companys sales. He declined to disclose either companys sales volumes or terms of the acquisition.
Nocco was a 25-year-old firm based in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha. Nocco President Randy Bates has joined Benz to retain responsibility for Nocco accounts.
