At EATI, our commitment to empowering law enforcement and emergency response teams drives our ongoing growth and expansion. In August, we celebrated two milestones with the relocation of two of our facilities – designed to enhance our service capabilities and meet the increasing demand for vehicle upfitting solutions.
Prior Lake | Serving Central and Southern Minnesota with greater capacity
Our former Jordan, MN location moved to a larger, more accessible facility in Prior Lake, MN. This move was driven by our desire to better serve our growing customer base in the central and southern metro, ensuring quicker turnaround times, comprehensive vehicle upfitting options, and adding to our team. While we are grateful for our time in the Jordan community, we are excited to be a part of the Prior Lake community and look forward to strengthening our partnerships.
This location positions us for increased capacity, enabling us to handle larger fleet projects, as well as service and upfit more vehicles at a time with our growing team. Additionally, sharing a wall with Black Diamond Tinting allows us to streamline vehicle customization, providing our customers with integrated solutions – including access to window tinting, right next door.
We celebrated this milestone on August 6 th by hosting an Open House, inviting our clients, partners, and community members to tour our expanded facility, enjoy lunch, and see firsthand how we’re better equipped to serve those who serve.
Hermantown | Expanding to meet Northern Minnesota and Wisconsin’s Emergency Vehicle needs
Meanwhile, our Hermantown location also underwent a move. Relocating just down the road from our previous site, our new facility provides the space needed to enhance our upfitting and build capabilities for law enforcement and emergency response teams across northern Minnesota and Wisconsin. This move was essential to maintain our reputation as Minnesota’s most accessible emergency vehicle upfitter. By expanding into a dedicated, stand-alone building-adjacent to our trusted partner, Aluminum Cabinet Company – we can now increase our throughput, expand our team and continue to prioritize delivering customized solutions to our first response teams.
The relocation was celebrated with an Open House on August 13 th , where attendees could tour the new space, enjoy lunch, and hear about our future. During the open house, we were visited by WDIO, a local news station, as well as welcomed into the Hermantown Area Chamber of Commerce.
We are grateful for the flexibility and understanding of our response teams during this transition, as we continue to grow and invest into our business to continue to support the missions of our response teams.
Looking Ahead – EATI and our future
Our ongoing growth reflects our dedication to supporting law enforcement and emergency response teams with reliable, state-of-the-art vehicle upfitting. These expansions position us to meet increasing demand, faster turnaround times, increase our teams, and provide innovative solutions that help responders perform their duties more effectively.
Thank you for trusting EATI. We are excited to continue growing alongside our law enforcement teams and serve those who serve.
