VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 3, 2021 /CNW/ - Cansel and AllTerra Central, two leading Trimble Geospatial dealers globally, have announced the purchase of Allen Instruments & Supplies from Empire Technology Holdings, headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona.

With the addition of the Allen Instruments offices in Ventura, Anaheim and Escondido, Cansel will expand into Southern California to be the exclusive Trimble Geospatial Dealer of surveying equipment and positioning solutions throughout California.
"I am very pleased to welcome Allen Instruments & Supplies to the organization," stated Martin Trudelle, Cansel President.
