Ed Walerko became the sole owner of the Company in 2008 when he bought out his father and siblings' shares. Having been involved in the Company since his youth, and operating it for over a decade, Ed sought to sell the business in order to retire. He engaged with Calder Capital, LLC, to find the right buyer for his family's long-standing business. Rick Purcey, Mergers and Acquisitions Advisor at Calder Capital, LLC, served as the lead advisor on the deal.

"It has been quite the journey getting to this point," remarked Ed Walerko, about the transaction. "Many setbacks, frustrations, and hurdles to overcome. In the end, dogged perseverance, determination, and a broker who wouldn't quit prevailed. Thank you so much to Rick, Max, and Calder Capital, for your efforts, time, advice, and even a little humor when things got a little testy. You were a broker, psychologist, strategist all wrapped up in one."

"With the acquisition of Walerko, we have expanded our base of companies dedicated to precision machining services of highly complex parts and components," said Eric Karaman, Chief Operating Officer of Mno-DREK. "We look forward to seamlessly integrating the business into our family of companies and capitalizing on the core competencies established by their dedicated team of manufacturing specialists."
