Parker Hannifin is an international leader in motion and control technologies; and ParkerStore is a global network of independently owned retailers of Parker Hannifin products. In all, its reach includes over 2600 service points around the world. “The ParkerStore concept offers a complete business plan for distributors who are interested in operating a retail facility,” says Mark Johnson, channel sales and marketing manager, Parker Hannifin SA.

“The stores also provide an important opportunity for our distributors to support local customers and boost maintenance, repair and operation (MRO) sales. ParkerStores enable local access to the full depth and breadth of Parker products for the MRO market. The ParkerStore environment is designed to bring the warehouse out to the showroom by providing immediate access to critical components. This can have a big impact on the bottom line of a business by helping to reduce the time and money lost due to equipment downtime.”
