LindFast Solutions Group (LSG) acquired Toronto-based Fasteners and Fittings, Inc. (F&F) for an undisclosed sum. The combination of LSG and F&F will enhance and expand both companies’ capabilities in Canada.

“F&F shares the same relentless focus on meeting customer needs as LSG,” said LindFast CEO Bill Niketas. “We are excited for the opportunity to combine forces and expand our collective capabilities to better serve our customers. I am confident F&F will be a great addition to our team, and together we will continue to meet and exceed our customers’ expectations.”

LSG plans to maintain the strong Fasteners and Fittings brand name in the market. F&F will continue normal operations out of its two facilities in Toronto and Calgary for the foreseeable future. 

LSG also operates two facilities in the Toronto area, along with another in Montreal. LSG now has a total of five branches in the Canadian market, along with 13 more in the U.S. 

“My father James Robinson co-founded Fasteners & Fittings in 1976 and I joined the company in 1979,” noted Ted Robinson, F&F president. “I had the honor and privilege to work with him until his passing in 2002. I am proud of the company we built and grateful to the wonderful, loyal employees who helped make Fasteners & Fittings the success it is.”

Blaine, MN-based LindFast is a master distributor that inventories 130,000 SKUs of low-volume fasteners.

LindFast was formed with the Lindstrom LLC acquisition of Stelfast Inc. in 2018 and was acquired by Nautical Partners in 2019. Web: LindFastGroup.com
