“Ace has been a supplier to Reinke for many years, so we know that Ace makes a quality product,” said Chris Roth, Reinke President. “With the addition of Ace, Reinke now has six U.S.-based locations that will give us more capacity to produce and deliver the irrigation products needed by growers.”
Regarding Ace’s culvert division, Roth added “We’re also excited to add the culvert line to our product offering. This will allow Reinke to continue to grow into the future, building upon the success that Ace has delivered their customers for nearly 70 years.”
