Tidewater Power Equipment Purchases Engine Distribution Center in Greensboro, North Carolina
Tidewater Power Equipment, an outdoor power equipment distributor based in Virginia Beach, VA, has recently purchased Engine Distribution Center, an outdoor power equipment distribution company located in Greensboro, North Carolina. Effective immediately, Engine Distribution Center (EDC) will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Tidewater Power Equipment (TPE). While EDC will continue to function in its own facility out of Greensboro, NC, all Honda Engines and their accompanying parts and accessories will now ship out of Tidewater Power Equipment’s Virginia Beach location, expanding TPE’s existing Honda Engine territory to include North and South Carolina.
“This is a natural area of growth for our Honda Engine business” stated Tidewater Power Equipment President Todd Winstead. “We are extremely excited to add Honda Engines, as well as the other product lines represented by EDC, to our existing product offerings in the states of North and South Carolina.” TPE already represents Hustler Turf, Timberwolf, Monster, Maruyama, Bluebird, Plugr, Ecolawn, Prizelawn, and Jacto in North and South Carolina.
According to Winstead, by keeping the EDC operation in Greensboro intact, he expects a seamless transition to take place with no interruption in service to customers. Winstead and his team look forward to welcoming the EDC staff to the Tidewater Power family as well as working with their new and current customers in the expanded territory.
"Honda Engines congratulates Tidewater Power Equipment on its continued growth," said Michael Rickey, National Sales Manager, Engine Sales, Service and Operations. "We support Tidewater's focus upon customer satisfaction and quality that will serve our shared consumers well."
Covering eight states with thirteen power equipment lines, Tidewater Power Equipment has been distributing to the east coast since 1982. With a spacious and recently updated warehouse and business center located in Virginia Beach, VA, Tidewater Power Equipment is committed to serving their customers, vendors, and end-users to ensure continuous growth and success.
