AWC Relocates Wisconsin Office
Allied is proud to announce that on Friday, October 3, 2008, our Midwestern division moved from
Elkhorn, WI to a 20,000 square-foot facility in Pewaukee, WI. The building gives us space for
new employees and machinery while leaving room for future growth.
"We are proud that we are moving to a larger facility. We will be adding additional equipment and
stock to help better service our valued customers. It is very exciting that in less than 2 years,
we have outgrown the Elkhorn plant," said Hans Nelson, Sales Manager for the Wisconsin division.
The new building is our response to our customers' biggest need: faster lead times. Thanks to unprecedented
growth in all locations, AWC has been able to expand and meet these needs. We expect shipping to our customers
in the Midwest and Western states to be even faster and more convenient.
Wisconsin is expanding its value-added capacities, particularly striping and re-spooling, with more space and
new or upgraded machinery. Our WI branch is equipped for:
- Striping: We can add up to three stripes to your wire and even stripe large gauge wire, from 6 - 4/0 AWG
- Re-spooling: We can re-spool your wire or cable onto any type or size spool you need
- Printing: We can print text in black or white and we can even order custom-print wheels for printing logos or graphics
on your cable in as many colors as needed
All of Allied's customization services, from braiding and dyeing to labeling and drum-packing, help improve turn-around
times so you get your customized order quicker than ever!
AWC has been growing rapidly over the past couple of years. This move follows the relocation of our headquarters in PA
just last winter. We know that we owe our success to our loyal customers, and we truly thank you for sticking with Allied.
The new facility is located at:
W233 N2870 Roundy Circle West
Pewaukee, WI 53072
