Modesto, Calif.-based The Grun Company, manufacturers of erosion control and environmental equipment, last week announced it has signed two of the industry’s leading manufacturers’ rep agencies to represent its products in all remaining and previously open territories not covered by other rep groups. Grun added A-1 Marketing and Kennett & Associates to represent its lines in various regions.

A-1 Marketing will represent The Grun Company in Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota. “Erosion control equipment is now the highest margin construction equipment category for rental dealers,” said Garrie Saylor, president of A-1 Marketing.

Kennett & Associates will represent The Grun Company in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. “We chose to represent The Grun Company because Grun products set the erosion control category’s performance standards by exceeding the productivity of competitive machines by anywhere from 20 to 50 percent,” said Donna Kennett, managing partner of Kennett & Associates.

Grun is a brand created by an established equipment manufacturer with a 41-year history of precision manufacturing highly engineered equipment for the agricultural and landscape contractor industries.
