Palmer Johnson Power Systems Expands West Coast Operations

MADISON, Wis., Nov. 4, 2025 - Palmer Johnson Power Systems (PJPS), a prominent name in off-highway powertrain solutions, has announced a significant milestone: the acquisition of the WHECO location in Los Angeles, California. This strategic move marks an important expansion for PJPS, enhancing their ability to serve clients in Southern California and improving logistical efficiency across the region.

The addition of WHECO’s LA facility allows PJPS to merge its extensive technical resources with WHECO's respected local expertise. This blend promises customers continuity in service, as they will be attended to by the well-regarded WHECO staff they have come to rely on, but now backed by PJPS's robust national support system. Customers can expect a seamless transition, maintaining their trust in the personnel while gaining access to an expanded inventory and service options.

Craig Swenson, President and COO of Palmer Johnson Power Systems, expressed enthusiasm about this acquisition, stating, “This acquisition represents an exciting next step for both teams. We’re combining decades of technical expertise and customer service experience under one roof to deliver even greater value and support to our customers.” He highlighted that the merger isn't just about physical assets; it's about enhancing customer service and operational capacity to meet increasing demands in the area.

A Seamless Transition Ahead

Over the coming months, PJPS plans to streamline operations by combining their existing Los Angeles facility with the newly acquired WHECO site. This careful consolidation is designed to ensure that all customers, vendors, and employees have a smooth experience throughout the transition.

This unified operation will feature enhanced service bays aimed at improving customer service logistics and increased availability of parts to meet the region's growing demand. Swenson further commented on this transition, saying, “We’re thrilled to welcome the WHECO Los Angeles team into the Palmer Johnson family. Together, we’ll continue to deliver on our promise of providing industry-leading service and support while growing our footprint to better serve the markets that rely on us every day.”

Looking Forward

The completion of this consolidation is anticipated by the end of 2025, with plans also in place to ramp up service capabilities in tandem with expansion efforts. PJPS's nationwide service network is set to benefit significantly from this acquisition, indicating their commitment to serving the needs of clients across Southern California. This strategic acquisition not only enhances PJPS's operational footprint in the region but also adds a valuable team of trained professionals to their ranks.
