GWC ITALIA, a US manufacturer of ball valves and gate, globe, and check valves in Bakersfield, California, announced that it is strengthening its national reach in North America with two key representative alliances with Marshall Rodeno Associated and Valve Products. These representation agreements provide coverage across key regions of the United States, in the South East and Northern and Southern Rockies, complementing existing mature representation elsewhere in the country.
Marshall Rodeno and Valve Products will represent GWC’s range of trunnion and floating ball valves, including the full range of gate, globe, and check valves. The valve ranges will be further complemented in the months to come, with additional product lines and services to those operating in midstream, upstream, and downstream markets.
GWC has been distributing valves in North America since 1985 and has attained a high level of customer acceptance and references. “These new representative alliances allow us to further grow our customer base in areas where we have been unable to support properly with after-sales service in the past,” said Marc Thurmond, Vice President-Sales North America for GWC Italia. “GWC Italia has the significant inventory to support business growth anticipated in the upper and lower Rockies and the Southeast region where we are now represented by Marshall Rodeno and Valve Products. With tens of millions of US inventory, we are extremely well-positioned to support our new partners,” he added.
