Our History
|
Since our beginning over 50 years ago, Enders and Associates has grown to become a leading manufacturer's representative agency in the heavy duty and commercial equipment industry in North and Central America along with a growing European presence. We offer best in class performance to the OEM and Aftermarket channels with its consistent dedication to excellence in customer service.
In 1970, Dick Enders founded Enders & Associates as an automotive aftermarket sales representative firm. Initial product lines included companies such as Grote, Radiator Specialty Company (makers of Gunk), Phillips Industries, and other various names popular at the time. By 1980, two truck manufacturers in the Pacific Northwest, Freightliner (now Daimler Trucks North America) and PACCAR, had begun to make a name for themselves. It was then the agency began to add the heavy duty market to its traditional focus on warehouse distributors, dealers and truck manufacturers in the Pacific Northwest. By 1990, the company had expanded to the Recreational Vehicle market and exited the automotive aftermarket completely. In 1993, the first Enders warehouse was opened in Portland, Oregon. Two years later, an additional warehouse was added in Seattle, Washington. In 1996, Mr. Enders retired and sold the company to current management. In 2016, the company again expanded its services to pursue opportunities in the Commercial Equipment sector by adding veteran personnel well versed in calling on accounts such as CAT and John Deere. Today, Enders & Associates has grown to become a leading Manufactures Representative Agency in the heavy duty and commercial equipment industries. The agency represents principals in North & Central America as well as a European presence through our partnership with the Doerr Group in Baden-Baden, Germany. |
