1988 FIN – Jacksonville Bolt Renamed A-Jax
March 25, 1988 FIN – A-Jax Co. Inc., Jacksonville, Florida, is the new name of the Jacksonville Bolt & Screw Co., Inc. and its affiliated operations.
Wade Chancey, vice president tells FIN that because Jacksonville Bolt & Screw has grown and diversified through a number of acquisitions in recent years, a neutral name was chosen to reflect its product orientation.
Neither the ownership or management of the operations have changed, he added. A-Jax Co., Inc. includes the following operations: Jax Bolt & Screw Co., a full line distributor located in Jacksonville; Bolt Industries, a full line distributor located in Ocala, Florida; Savannah Bolt & Screw Co., a full line distributor located in Savannah, Georgia; and Quality Tool Repair Co., a distributor of power tools with locations in Jacksonville and Ocala, Florida.
A-Jax Company, Inc., headed by David A. Baker, president, was founded in 1973. The company is located at 1500 E. 8th St., Jacksonville, FL. ©1988/2009 Fastener Industry News.
