Wolter, Inc. has announced the acquisition of Ohio-based dock and door equipment and service provider Ohio Valley Maintenance LLC, further growing the materials handling equipment dealer’s footprint in the Ohio market. 

Ohio Valley Maintenance LLC, founded by Dwight Newberry, has been in business since July 2010 as a Pentalift, ABC Dock, Flexon, and Hormann Door Equipment distributor for the Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky areas.

The business provides customers with dock and door equipment, as well as comprehensive service and support from factory-trained service technicians for all makes and models of dock equipment, including installation.

Moving forward, the Ohio Valley Maintenance team will operate as usual, with Newberry staying on as general manager.

This acquisition marks yet another addition to Wolter’s Ohio market, with Valley Industrial Crane in Dayton, OH joining Wolter in April 2022, and Integrity Industrial Equipment in Huber Heights, OH in August 2020.

“Wolter acquiring Ohio Valley Maintenance not only further expands our footprint in the Ohio market, but allows us to add another line of products and services to our ‘productivity toolbox’,” says Jerry Weidmann, Wolter, Inc. president.
