We’re Growing!
Did you know that we’ve grown by more than 60 people in the last two years? Since 1939, we’ve been focused on providing prompt, precise, and professional measurement products and services.
In 2011, J.A. King & Co expanded with the addition of our newest full service branch in Columbia, SC. With the acquisition of Palmetto Scale, we now have a branch office with better access to the eastern part of South Carolina and Northern Georgia. With additional resources, reduced travel rates, and broader coverage, we are rapidly expanding our presence in the Southeast.
In 2012, we are expanding again with the addition of a new territory in Charlotte, NC. With the addition of three new Account Managers, we are turning up the heat in the Charlotte area and offering our most competitive rates since 1939!
Because of the continued support our customers have shown J.A. King & Company, we are more prepared than ever before to continue to offer the best calibration, repair, and support in the measurement industry!
