In addition to strengthening Ainsworth’s existing U.S. operations, BP positions Ainsworth to expand its footprint into new markets in the United States both organically and through acquisition. John (Jack) Fanneron, President of BP and Steven Heiderstadt, President of BP’s mechanical division, are seasoned operators who will assume leadership roles in Ainsworth’s U.S. operations. I would like to welcome Jack, Steven and the entire BP team to the Ainsworth and GDI family,” concluded Mr. Bigras.
“We are very excited about joining with Ainsworth,” stated John (Jack) Fanneron, President of BP. “We have grown BP into one of the premiere providers of mechanical services in New York, and partnering with Ainsworth and GDI represents the next step in BP’s strategic evolution.
