“This acquisition gives RMS a North Metro location for customers in the Twin Cities and demonstrates our commitment to serving the aggregate and paving industries with a diverse lineup of product offerings," RMS CEO Mike Sill II said. "I look forward to the opportunities this will bring, and I welcome the Ruffridge Johnson team to RMS.”
Ruffridge Johnson was founded in 1936 and currently represents Terex MPS’ Cedarapids line of crushing and screening products, Masaba conveying products, Carlson pavers, Doppstadt trowels, ROSCO products, and BOMAG equipment. Ruffridge Johnson will continue to use its name and operate as a separate subsidiary of RMS.
Former Ruffridge Johnson Owner Dave Hosch will continue to lead the company as General Manager.
This acquisition brings the total number of RMS subsidiary companies to seven with RMS Rentals, RMS Hydraulic Solutions, and Pit & Quarry Supplies located in Savage, Minnesota; RMS Mining Solutions in Hibbing, Minnesota; RMS Tritec in Virginia, Minnesota; and US Shoring & Equipment Co. in Euless, Texas.
