"We
had a similar business philosophy, and both companies being family owned and
operated.", Said owner Tracey Beck. "With
our new state of the art facility, the opportunity for a shared labor pool and
equipment really makes this a great fit."
The
Beck Companies is excited to announce the acquisition of Great American
Recreation in October 2017. Formerly, owned and operated by Dave Celani
and located in Cranston RI. Proud manufacturer of pool tables, air
hockey and bumper pool tables for 38 years.
Great American has strong brand name
recognition in the industry for building long lasting high-quality recreation
tables (Pool Tables, Soccer, Air Hockey). Dave Celani was looking
to retire but keep his brand alive. We didn’t want to see another family owned
manufacturing company fade away. With our state of the art facility and
machinery and his industry knowledge, we all feel that we can modernize and
manufacture his classic products more efficiently. We are fully operational in the new facility
and manufacturing tables faster than competing brands. In addition, we are in the design phase to
launch shuffle board tables and a new exterior line of gaming tables as well as
some fun new additions using material from our sister manufacturing divisions,
bringing a unique twist to the traditional recreational game tables!
