In the latest A Minute with Jeff, Jeff and members of our Indiana sales and marketing teams head down the road to visit one of our key cutting tool partners, Nachi America, in Greenwood, Indiana.

The goal wasn’t simply to tour the facility—it was to learn.

By spending time with Nachi’s engineers and manufacturing experts, our team gets a deeper understanding of the tools, technology and applications we bring to our customers every day.

As Jeff puts it, the better we understand our products, the better we can serve our customers—helping them improve processes, reduce costs and become more profitable.

At Haggard & Stocking, we don’t just sell cutting tools. We provide solutions.

Take another Minute with Jeff and see what we learned at Nachi!
