We’re Going
Bigger

Letter from the COO

Dale Hedberg

Today, Methods Machine Tools announced our plan to build and open a new product distribution center in Fort Worth, Texas. Our expansion is the result of our customers’ tremendous loyalty, the hard work and dedication of our team members, and the deep support from our board and owners.

Thank you to everyone who made this day possible!

When we open the doors in 2023, our Fort Worth facility will serve as a major engineering and logistics hub. From there, we will:

• Deliver our growing portfolio of products, solutions, and parts to our customer base west of the Mississippi River.
• Capture the tremendous growth opportunities in Texas.
• Expand our Engineering team to further design and deploy leading-edge solutions, and new automation capabilities.
• Expand our national service call center and customer support operations.
• Scale our parts distribution network to shorten lead times with faster delivery.
• Host robust training programs for our team members, dealers, and customers.
• Create new, lasting career opportunities and grow our team in all fields.

Twenty-four years ago I joined this great company, long respected for the quality of our products and lasting customer relationships. Building lifetime partnerships is in our core. As our industry continues to evolve, we know our customers look to us to help them capture new opportunities and grow their businesses.

So, we spent the last two years redesigning our entire value chain of how we operate, building off of our strengths. We strategically expanded our direct sales coverage, fortified strategic go-to-market relationships with our key dealers, and made significant investments back into our business in people, processes, systems, tools, all integrated into creating an unparalleled customer experience.

Our new Texas facility is just one part of our strategy and commitment to take our company to the next level. Methods, together with our dedicated builders, stands ready, as we have for the past 64 years, to serve you with the best machine tools, automation, applications, and support that you can count on for a lifetime.

There is more work to be done, but our confidence has never been higher. We look forward to sharing more details about our broader vision in the months ahead.

To our customers, partners, and all Methods team members … Thank you!

With gratitude,
Dale Hedberg
