“We’re thrilled to announce our new partnership with MEDCO, which represents an incredible opportunity to expand the distribution of our products across the country,” said Chad Schnitz, vice president of TOPDON US. “We’ve expanded our U.S. operations steadily since 2017 and our partnership with MEDCO is a natural extension of our vision for continued growth and efforts to reach more customers. MEDCO offers an incredible wholesale network with technology to help us scale up to meet demand and is led by a team of successful executives with a deep knowledge of the automotive industry and nearly a century of business operations.”
MEDCO serves both traditional wholesalers and mobile tool dealers, operating fully stocked warehouses in select cities across the U.S., and continues to grow, representing over 450 manufacturer lines and over 150,000 SKUs.
“TOPDON offers high-quality automotive diagnostic tools that align with MEDCO’s mission to offer best-in-class products and solutions to fit the unique business needs and budgets of their customers,” said Schnitz. “Expanding our product offering through MEDCO’s distribution channels is a strategic way for TOPDON to meet our customers where they are.”
