Spee-Dee to be represented by Alex E. Jones in Canada

James P. Navin, President of Spee-Dee Packaging Machinery, Inc., has announced that Alex E. Jones, based in Toronto, will be representing the company’s family of dry fill packaging equipment solutions in Canada.

According to Timm Johnson, Vice President, Sales/Marketing, Spee-Dee has been experiencing increased demand outside of the United States for the company’s technologically advanced product line.  Alex E. Jones offers the advantages of local sales, parts, and service support for Canadian-based packagers from its corporate headquarters and also maintains a sales support office, with a fully bilingual staff, in Montreal.

“Founded in 1976, Alex E.
