"We look forward to working alongside the Cana team who possess a long-standing reputation throughout the MH industry for their superior quality, industry-leading lead times, creative designs, and quality customer and supplier relationships," said Andy Nemeth, President of Patrick. "Additionally, we are excited about bringing our two companies together to increase our presence and become a larger supplier to the MH and industrial markets of high-quality, customized cabinet doors and components. Consistent with our previous acquisitions, we will support Cana with a financial and operational foundation that will allow it to capitalize on its core competencies while preserving the creative entrepreneurial spirit that has been so important to its success."
