The Gordon Flesch Company has signed an agreement to acquire Advanced Systems, Inc., an independent dealer with offices in Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota. The combined company will be the largest independent office equipment dealership in the Midwest.
The merged company will be known as the Gordon Flesch Company and will serve business customers in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, and South Dakota. GFC has been recognized as Canon U.S.A.’s largest independent dealership for the past five years, while ASI has been an authorized Canon dealer since 1981 and has been continually recognized as a Canon Top Dealer.
“This strategic partnership presents a unique opportunity for both organizations, and after several months of discussions, we’re really excited to see this come to fruition,” says Patrick Flesch, president of the Gordon Flesch Company. “The similarities between our two companies are amazing, which is why we are convinced this will be a great strategic and cultural fit, offering a unique and exciting opportunity for both organizations to grow.”
“ASI has been proud to serve customers across Iowa, Minnesota, and South Dakota for more than sixty years,” says Troy Love, president and CEO of ASI. “GFC will deliver additional size, depth of experience and technology solutions for our customers while retaining the Midwestern values and commitment to customer service our business clients are accustomed to receiving.”
