Molson Group acquires Powerscreen Western

Molson Group in the UK has expanded its US presence with the acquisition of Powerscreen Western, expanding the group’s coverage of the Western US to now include the state of Arizona. Following the successful acquisitions of Powerscreen of California in April 2022 and, shortly afterwards of Powerscreen of Washington, the group now has substantial coverage across nine states in the US.

With the group generating over £375m in revenue per annum, this third US acquisition will support the continued growth of operations in North America. With a proven model offering customers complete machinery solutions from a 360-degree product portfolio, new manufacturer partners are already in line, and further acquisitions are expected to follow.

Powerscreen Western offers a range of leading brands, predominately from the leading materials processing equipment manufacturer Terex, including Powerscreen, EvoQuip, CBI and Ecotec to name a few. With distribution and after-sales support throughout the state of Arizona and southern Nevada, the company will continue to trade under the Powerscreen Western brand whilst benefitting from the assistance of back-office support from the wider Molson Group.

Existing and new customers of Powerscreen Western will benefit, with increased availability of machines, parts, and personnel, thanks to the financial backing of the Molson Group. However, as with previous deals, Molson’s ability to implement proven technology solutions and drive efficiency and growth was a key factor in the deal being agreed and driving improvements in customer service levels moving forward.
