Focused Technology Solutions announces strategic partnerships with international resellers

Focused Technology Solutions, Inc., (FTS) has announced an expanded partnership by setting up strategic resellers with Australia’s Specialised Force and Canada’s Davanac.

Both resellers will carry FTS’ flagship product, SpikeEase.

“We're fortunate to have found distributive partners like Specialised Force and Davanac – well established railroad businesses run by exceptional people with customer-responsive cultures,” said Kirk Kreisher, vice president of sales, FTS. “At FTS, we're experiencing worldwide enthusiasm for our flagship product, SpikeEase, and we are striving toward capitalizing on those international market opportunities.”

After its availability in the United States, SpikeEase will now be available at each of Specialised Force’s nine locations in Australia and Davanac’s five locations in Canada.

“We believe representing FTS will allow us to continue to build our core strengths and enhance our product mix,” said Adam Drescig, key account manager, Davanac. “This is a progressive step in the growth of Davanac and an opportunity to work collaboratively with like-minded partners who are 100 percent railway focused, just as we are.”

Kevin Harrold, national product and marketing manager, Specialised Force, said, “You would only understand how great this tool is if you have removed rail spikes the traditional way. [Specialised Force] commenced marketing the SpikeEase around a month ago and we’ve had overwhelming results.

FTS says SpikeEase is the first battery-operated and hydraulic-free spike puller on the market.
