“The MPM model has been extremely successful in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast, steadily adding to its customer base and sales figures,” said Larry Nicholson, President of MPMFEG. “We are looking to continue our progress. The acquisition of Connecticut Food and Weighing Equipment further increases MPMFEG’s market footprint in New England while adding experienced food equipment professionals.

“MPMFEG will use the Connecticut Food and Weighing’s existing marketing structure and team to leverage its model to its customers,” Nicholson continued. “The integration of the Northeast division into our successful business model will take place over the next 12 months.
