“ In 2017 , my two partners , Mike and Alicia , and I founded ANA . The three of us joined forces to make ANA the North American distributor for Airman , a famous brand of air compressors and generators from Niigata , Japan . Established in 1938 , Airman entered the North American market in the 1980s and had since worked with a handful of distributors before giving us the opportunity to distribute their products . It had never been able to cement itself in the top third of companies in the North American market , which is something we wanted to change , and a position which we have achieved .
“ Interestingly , I have grown up in this industry , and my godfather founded one of our big competitors , for whom I worked for 17 years . While I was there , I became familiar with the Airman product , and through ANA , I am proud we ’ ve grown
Airman ’ s position in a short time frame and positioned ourselves as a recognized brand of both air compressors and generators in the North American rental equipment industry . Since our early days , we have experienced a whirlwind of success , becoming a threetime back-to-back Inc . 5000 company , a testament to our tremendous growth over the last seven years ,” he expresses .
