Gross Automation is an electrical and electro-mechanical automation controls
distributor serving Wisconsin and the upper Midwest.
History
Bob Gross became an independent manufacturer's representative for a large
Midwestern distributor in 1986. This was after a number of positions
beginning as a power t&d engineer and migrating into technical sales and
marketing. The business, R. J. Gross and Associates, Inc., was incorporated
on August 3, 1990, and the manufacturer's representative team moved into
distribution in late 1991. From there, beginning in a small 400 square-foot
facility on Milwaukee's northwest side, the business has grown into its
current 10,000 square-foot headquarters in New Berlin, Wisconsin, with a
satellite office in Sparta on Wisconsin's western side.
Early in 2002, the
name was shortened to Gross Automation to help define the market and the
customers whom are served.
