Kind
Physical operations

A Vaughan, Ontario manufacturer of premium tools for the gas, water and underground utility markets, in the seller's release, founded in 1982 by the vehicle's page, bought from a private equity owner that had held it since 2017.

What Happened Next

Still held: the vehicle's own about page makes its founder president and chief executive of the company, and the company's own June 2026 post on an industry award quotes him under that title. The seller's April 2023 release announces the majority sale to the vehicle with the close in early March.

The exit ends of journeys like this one, where the buyer has announced the purchase itself, are on Buyers.

Method & Source

This record is double-sourced: it joined when the purchase and, where the company has traded on, the exit could both be read in primary accounts rather than inferred.
