GAWDA member explains growth of fourth-generation family business.

Dewitt, NY: Machine & Welding Supply Company traces its roots back to 1925 when William Aldredge opened a machine shop in Dunn, North Carolina. Now in its fourth generation of family ownership, the company has 23 branch locations and more than 200 employees throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.

In the current issue of Welding & Gases Today, the journal of the Gases and Welding Distributors Association (GAWDA), Emmett Aldredge Jr., grandson of the founder, along with his sons Emmett III and Christopher, who both work for the company, talk about the legacy they were given and the future of distribution.

In the beverage CO2 business for almost 20 years, mini-bulk technology has enabled the company to take advantage of a growing market. A fleet of vehicles transport CO2 in its liquid state across the Carolinas. The company is capitalizing on the restaurant industry's move to switch from standard 50-pound compressed cylinders to bulk CO2.

Aggressive growth is a hallmark of Machine & Welding Supply Company, and with a product mix of gases and hardgoods, the company has worked hard to diversify into a one-stop shop for customers.
