We look forward to continuing to build on the phenomenal legacy of EBD."
Mr. Henson added, "As a founder-owned business, finding the right partner to lead EBD through its next phase of growth was the critical determining factor when deciding who to sell our company to. Arcline's deep experience in our markets, knowledge of our products and growth mindset made them the perfect fit for EBD."
