Echelon Supply and Service — backed by HCI Equity Partners —acquired Berg-Nelson Company at the end of March, the company announced.

Financial terms were not disclosed. Echelon was formerly known as JGB Enterprises, Inc.

Echelon offers supply chain management and logistics services for distributors of industrial hose, fluid power products and hose assembly solutions in markets including the U.S. Department of Defense, oil and gas, food and beverage, retail, construction and industrial OEMs.

Berg-Nelson is Echelon’s third add-on acquisition since HCI’s platform investment.
