Brecker's ABC Tool Co. Opens as a KOMET SERVICE Partner



KOMET of America, Inc. and Brecker's ABC Tool Co. recently hosted an official grand opening event to mark the start of their KOMET SERVICE Partnership. In addition to the ceremony, guests toured the Brecker's facility and saw live demonstrations of the shop equipment in action. Brecker's is now licensed to refurbish KOMET solid carbide tools and manufacture KOMET special solid carbide tools.

KOMET SERVICE has 20 Partners in Europe and 10 in North America. "The growth we are experiencing right now is very exciting," said Tom Whennen, Manager of KOMET SERVICE in North America and KOMET of America's Director of Channels. "We are privileged to have Brecker's as one of our Partners; they are a top-notch tooling shop. Adding a Partner in Michigan also reaffirms our commitment to the automotive industry, and there is no better regrind company to service the automotive industry than Brecker's."

"While the well-attended open house was only one evening, the preparation leading up to the event has been months in the making," said a KOMET spokesperson. "The KOMET SERVICE team from KOMET of America and Brecker's have been working together to train technicians and operators in the Roseville, MI, shop and develop a market strategy. This spirit of collaboration and cooperation is integral to the KOMET SERVICE philosophy."

"Now that the excitement of the grand opening has passed, it is all about generating results," said Chelsey Gumro, Chief Marketing Officer at Brecker's. "We are now focused on working with the KOMET Sales Engineers to ensure the success of this partnership by finding out what we can bring to our customers through this new venture."
