About Aviation Ground Equipment Corp.

Aviation Ground Equipment Corp., also called AGEC, supplies ground support equipment, known as GSE. This is the equipment that serves aircraft on the ground. The company is a distributor and a manufacturer. It serves both commercial and military aviation.

The company was founded in 1984 by two professionals in the ground support field. It began as a small airport service and maintenance company. Over time, it grew from sales and service into making its own equipment. Some of this was made for government contracts.

In the early 2000s, AGEC opened a new manufacturing site in Ohio. The site allowed it to take on larger projects. AGEC has since worked as a prime contractor for major contracts. Its customers include the United States Government, the Department of Defense, large companies and aircraft makers.

AGEC is an authorized distributor of GSE products. It stocks many genuine Hobart and Trilectron spare parts and accessories. The company says it helps buyers pick the right equipment for their needs. It aims to answer questions and to deliver on time at fair prices.

The company also develops new product lines. It states that its military products meet United States military specifications. These products help support troops on land and at sea. AGEC also provides logistics support to its customers.

The team includes electrical and mechanical engineers, technicians and assemblers. The company says it has the people and facilities to design, build, test and deliver its products. Its stated mission is to power the future of ground support equipment for the aviation industry. It uses the phrase support from the ground up for this work.

The website describes the company as engineers, distributors, contractors and professionals. It says the business has served aviation for over 40 years. Visitors can use the site to learn about the products, the history and the military support work.
