JDC, a portfolio company of Kinderhook Industries, LLC, announced the acquisition of Atlas Truck Sales, Inc. and Atlas Bucket Rentals, Co. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The Atlas acquisition marks JDC’s first add-on since partnering with Kinderhook in December 2024.
Atlas is a family owned and operated business based in Channelview, Texas, specializing in the sale and rental of bucket trucks and digger derricks. The company has long been a trusted partner to customers in industrial and utility markets throughout the greater Houston area. The acquisition expands JDC’s presence in its fastest-growing end markets and adds meaningful regional density across Texas, further enhancing fleet utilization and customer reach. JDC’s acquisition of Atlas is representative of the Company’s targeted strategy of growing its specialized equipment fleet and customer network through the acquisition of entrenched market leaders in attractive geographies.
“Atlas is a great addition to the JDC platform,” said Rob Michalik, managing director at Kinderhook. “Texas is a priority market for us, and Atlas adds to JDC’s strong presence with a reputation that we’re proud to support.”
