Alabama-based Birmingham Fastener recently announced the opening of its newest branch, Phoenix Fastener in Arizona.

The location is the company’s first in the state of Arizona, and it follows the company’s recent acquisition of Santa Fe Springs, California-based Pacific Coast Bolt, which manufactures and distributes a wide range of products to industries such as water, wastewater, chemical, refining, and construction.

“Most importantly, it allows us to add teammates to our world-class staff and will yield long-term benefits for our customers,” the company said in its announcement.

The company added that Yates Hudson, a 39-year fastener industry veteran, is expected to lead the team in Phoenix as General Manager.

“This strategic expansion is a testament to our team’s unwavering commitment to excellence and world-class service,” says Birmingham Fastener President and CEO, Brad Tinney, “We are excited to continue growing our presence on the West Coast, and we look forward to reinforcing our position as a trusted partner to businesses and industries across the nation.”
