When Andrew started ABCO he had spent all his working career within the bearing industry. After serving his production engineering apprenticeship straight from school in Luton with SKF Andrew then put his product knowledge to good use as a technical salesperson with SKF before moving to work within distribution for Widerange Bearings where he ended up as UK Sales manager.
Bearings still a major part of our DNA, and whilst as a company we have diversified to cover the full range of MRO products, we keep that in house technical ability and in-depth knowledge of bearing ranges and applications to this day.
