Dillon-based dealer Herald has acquired a fellow South Carolina independent business. The latest addition to the fold is print and mailroom solutions provider Major Business Machines (MBM).
MBM was founded in 1974 and operates across upstate and mid-state South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia. Vice president Don Major confirmed he and his team would be staying on following the deal with Herald, which closed on July 1.
“We feel that Herald is the right company to entrust with our legacy and look forward to watching them carry on the Major Business Machines baton,” said Major in a statement to MBM customers. “Thank you again for all of your support; we love each of you and cannot express how much you mean to us!”
Herald said the acquisition has cemented its footprint as a statewide copier, mail and managed print provider.
“We are thrilled to welcome Major Business Machines to the Herald family,” read the Herald statement. “This exciting partnership unites two companies with rich legacies of customer-focused service and innovation. Herald is a fifth-generation family business that has served the Carolinas for over 130 years with a focus on building lasting partnerships. Major shares a similar commitment to excellence and service and continues to deepen our expertise in the ever-evolving office print environment.”
