What H & H Sales, Inc. does

H&H Sales, Inc. is a privately held manufacturer's representative firm founded in October 1986 and headquartered at 812 East 59th Street, Davenport, Iowa. The company provides sales representation for manufacturers of power transmission components, bearings, locking solutions, engineered plastics, gearboxes, coil springs, and metal fabrication products, serving a downstream customer base of 1,900+ accounts across 15 Midwest states (Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wisconsin). Its end customers span Agriculture (John Deere, CNH Industrial, AGCO, Kinze), Recreation (Polaris, Arctic Cat, Harley-Davidson), Lawn & Garden (Toro, Ariens), Material Handling (Hytrol, Wynright/Daifuku), and Industrial Distribution (Motion Industries, Applied Industrial Technologies, BDI), with named principals including Alinabal, Allied-Locke, Dimatic, Eagle Performance Plastics, FYH, Great Lakes Industry, Superior Gearbox Company, VNC, Weisgram Metal Fab, Wieland, and Winamac Coil Spring. Distribution is executed via 10 strategically located sales offices staffed by a President, Regional Manager, 13 Territory Managers, 2 inside sales professionals, and administrative/finance staff.

The company's commercial stack rests on two proprietary web-based systems: the Quote Track System, which tracks every sales lead from initial contact through final purchase and provides real-time pipeline visibility, quote-performance analytics, and forecasting dashboards, and the Representative Profit Management System (RPMS), which monitors sales performance, tracks market trends, optimizes territory management, and manages commission accounting. These systems underpin a service bundle that includes systematic lead generation and qualification, strategic annual planning with quarterly reviews, and monthly market-intelligence email campaigns. H&H Sales is led by the Haedt family — President Harry Haedt, Regional Manager Jonathan Haedt, and Territory Manager Ben Haedt — alongside a Controller and administrative team, and the firm carries no disclosed institutional investors, no parent company, and no acquisition history. Revenue is generated exclusively through commissions on sales the firm books for its represented principals; commission rates and pricing are negotiated bilaterally and not publicly disclosed.

Others

• SKF: Global bearings and power transmission manufacturer. Adjacent in the value chain as a potential principal that H&H might represent, or as a competitor whose direct-sales force reaches into the same OEM engineering and procurement seats in the Midwest.
• NTN Bearing: Global bearings manufacturer with established commercial vehicle and industrial OEM relationships. Operates as a supplier/principal type and overlap with H&H's product portfolio; comparable in that it serves the same buyers through different commercial models.

Broad incumbents

• Kaman Distribution: Industrial distributor of bearings, power transmission, bearings, and material handling components. Operates a broader geographic footprint than H&H Sales but addresses the same OEM customer profile with overlapping product lines.
• BDI (Bearing Distributors Inc.): Specialty industrial distributor focused on bearings and power transmission products for OEMs. Serves the same Midwest customer base as H&H Sales and is also listed as a distribution partner — directly comparable end-customers and product overlap.
• Applied Industrial Technologies: Top-tier industrial distributor with deep bearings, power transmission, and fluid power categories serving manufacturing OEMs nationwide. Comparable on customer base (including John Deere) and product portfolio; an H&H customer and a competitor for OEM mindshare and shelf space.
• Motion Industries: Largest industrial distributor of bearings and power transmission products in North America, serving OEM accounts through employed direct-sales reps across all U.S. regions. Channel model (direct distribution) and product focus overlap with H&H Sales' portfolio; also lists as an H&H distribution customer, creating both partner and competitive overlap.

Regional players

• Wajax Corporation: Canadian-headquartered industrial distributor of bearings, power transmission, and related components primarily serving Canadian manufacturers. Comparable product portfolio and customer type to H&H Sales but operates in a different geographic territory.
