Our Business

Pellco Machine was started in 1985 as a one man shop by Randy Pelletier.  There was one OOG Brown & Sharpe automatic screw machine and a desk in about a 200 square foot corner of a used machinery dealers warehouse.  Today we occupy 40,000 square feet and have 28 employees operating 25 CNC machines.  Our fortunate growth over the years has come mainly from word of mouth and our excellent location in St. Michael.  Our hope is to continue growing Pellco while maintaining an excellent reputation in the machining industry.
