New West Coast Alliance Gives Methods Machine Tools a Higher Profile

Methods Machine Toolshas moved to a new office in Buena Park, California, office to better coordinate service for its customers on the US West Coast. The facility in Buena Park, 25 miles (40 km) southeast of Los Angeles, is part of a new marketing alliance between the Massachusetts-based supplier of precision machine tools and Selway Machine Tool Company, a major West Coast distributor and representative headquartered in Union City, California.

According to Method Machine Tools president Bryon Deysher, the alliance will be better for prospective buyers of machine tools as well as for longstanding Methods customers.

“Joining forces with Selway means we will have more engineers and service technicians to provide better response times, expert advice, training, and technical support,” says Deysher. “In addition to a larger sales force, this alliance also means larger inventories of machine tools and spare parts. With a larger showroom capacity, we’ll have even more machines on display.”
