Growth Through Merger Strategic expansion is recent with the Dec 2025 merger with Minneapolis Oxygen Company forming CM2 Supply, indicating a shift toward becoming a regional welding, gases, dry ice and automation solutions distributor. This creates cross-sell opportunities for welding supplies, beverage carbonation, dry ice, and related automation services to a broader customer base.

Automation Focus Past leadership change in automation and a strong robotics/automation background suggest ongoing emphasis on automation solutions. Sales potential includes robotics integration, automation tooling, and consulting services for education administration programs seeking process efficiency or production-grade workflows.

Tech Stack Leverage Use of SOLIDWORKS, WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Microsoft 365, Azure, WP Engine, and KnowBe4 signals capability in design, e-commerce, cloud, and security. Potential cross-sell of cloud security, content management, and e-commerce enhancements to optimize online presence and client-facing workflows for education administration programs.

Geographic footprint Based in Minnesota with expansion activity in neighboring markets via merger and distribution capabilities. Opportunity to pursue local educational institutions and facilities management contracts and to upsell distribution of CO2, dry ice, and related equipment to campuses and municipal partners.

Financial profile Current revenue under one million and a small employee base; growth-focused sales approach can target SMBs in education administration and welding supply sectors, offering bundled solutions that combine automation, safety, and digital services to drive larger contract values.
