Singer Equipment, one of the largest food equipment and service dealers in the mid-Atlantic region, said it bought M Tucker Co., a Paterson-based independent food service equipment distributor. Financial terms were not disclosed.
M Tucker will add its fleet of 17 trucks and more than 7,000 stock items to Singer's 28 trucks and 10,000 stock items.
With the combination of the two companies, Singer becomes the nation's fourth-largest food service equipment dealer from seventh-biggest. M Tucker has worked with AT&T, The Ritz-Carlton hotel and Bronx-Lebanon Hospital. Both of these family-owned and operated companies previously worked together to found Supply America, a national food operating and services distribution company. The deal was announced Friday.
