by Komatsu? Who is Komatsu? What is Komatsu? More importantly, why is Komatsu? Before that can be answered, you need to know what about Gee Heavy Machinery. That’s their actual name— I know, reading it out sounds like “Gee, heavy machinery. How am I going move that thing?”. As you might guess from its name, Gee Heavy Machinery is a dealer for… Heavy machinery. I never really thought about there being a dealership for heavy machines, but there is, apparently. But gee, Gee Heavy Machinery is no more, after only being in business for 2 years. Gee had locations in Fresno and Sacramento. The heavy machinery dealer is dead—but long live KOMATSU! Komatsu is another heavy machine dealer, and it should not be difficult to guess that Komatsu is a Japanese company. Komatsu’s acquisition means that not only will there still be a heavy machinery dealer, but some of
Komatsu’s own technicians and much of the same, local technicians that used to work at Gee. Gee, that is a great thing for employees that suddenly found themselves out of a job.
