When Captain A.N. Petersen came ashore in 1920 and founded the company bearing his name, he was regarded as a forerunner. His skill and diligence formed the background upon which the company was built and prospered. He was also able to create a unique company spirit, of which we are proud. Captain A.N. Petersen's influence and contribution to the company's success has continued since his death in 1941. We are proud that a number of the people working with A.N. Petersen have been serving the company for many years. We are equally proud to have young enthusiastic people joining and staying with us, thereby ensuring the future of the company. In the early years A.N. Petersen enjoyed a close association with A/S Det Dansk-Franske Dampskibsselskab, as well as being managing owners for several Danish shipping companies. Our competitive chartering also formed an important part of the company's activities in the early days. However, like other professions, shipping often and rapidly changes patterns and in 1979 the brokers of the company took over the ownership. A.N. Petersen then became a wholly independent competitive shipbrokering company enjoying the experience of the past, progressive ideas of the present, and belief in the future.

In mid-2001,GATX Logistics was acquired by APL Logistics and GATX Logistics changed its name to APL Logistics. In addition, two other entities also changed theirs. GATX Freight Systems became APL Logistics Freight Systems. And GATX eLogistics Corp. became APL Direct Logistics. The benefits of GATX Logistics becoming part of APL Logistics are many. Our geographic reach is more substantial because of APL’s presence in the Asian markets. Our scope of services is broader because of the long list of services APL Logistics offers, such as Expedited Air Services to manage air shipments and International Intermodal Express (IIX) for moving less-than-container-load shipments. If you have any questions about the integration of GATX Logistics and APL Logistics, please visit us on the web at www.apllogistics.com. APL Logistics, Inc. is one of the largest asset-based providers of contract logistics services. It helps businesses manage their supply chain logistics through a variety of integrated services, 3,200 employees and a comprehensive network throughout the continental United States, Mexico, Canada, Central America and South America.

The Apex Marine Group is comprised of Apex Marine Ship Management Co., L.L.C. and Apex Bulk Carriers. The company history dates back to 1967, when it purchased its first tanker from the Lemos group. Over the years Apex has been involved in the construction, ownership and management of VLCC’s, clean and dirty product tankers, handymax and panamax bulk carriers, container vessels, ro-ro’s and other special purpose vessels. Business relationships during the 1970’s and 1980’s included companies such as Crowley Maritime, Lasco, Texaco, Amerada Hess, Ultramar, and American Petrofina. The company has also worked with the Agency for International Development and the Israeli Grain Mission in bulk grain movements.

We presently have relationships with organizations like Atlas Shipping A/S, Armada Shipping SA, China Ocean Shipping, EDF & Man, Lauritzen AS, Oldendorff Carriers, Tschudi & Eitzen, Van Ommeren Clipper and others.

Based upon in-depth market knowledge and leading-edge technology, Barco solutions help customers improve productivity and effectiveness. Barco, a global company, operates in almost 100 countries.

Five core divisions, supported by the Barco Manufacturing Services division, target the various key markets of the company. Core divisions include the existing BarcoVision and BarcoView divisions, as well as the newly created Barco Control Rooms, Barco Media & Entertainment and Barco Presentation & Simulation divisions. These last three divisions came into being as a result of the strategic reorganization of BarcoProjection into three independent divisions on 1 January 2004. This refocus underlines Barco’s strategy to operate as close as possible to the customer and to enlarge the international segment of its various markets, without cost increase. As such, the reorganization is in line with Barco’s market-oriented approach that is characteristic of the company’s operations and a key factor in Barco’s successful growth. To further increase efficiency and thus substantially reduce cost, all subcontracting activities of the Barco Manufacturing Services division have been consolidated into a single location in Belgium and one in the Czech Republic.

In 1972 we broke ranks with Dahl-Beck Electric (our current parent company) and became incorporated under our current name. In the early days we supplied Dahl-Beck and other marine contractors in the bay area with the marine electrical apparatus essential for the electrical repair and retrofitting on board shipping vessels at the Port of San Francisco. We continued to operate as a specialty marine electrical distributor at 2nd and Howard Street (San Francisco) until 1981 when Bill Beck and George Vaio spearheaded our move to an 18,000 square ft. facility in Emeryville California to better serve the Port of Oakland container vessels and the terminal facilities located there. Today we find ourselves once again under the same roof as our parent company Dahl-Beck Electric where we operate within an even larger 46,000 square ft. and more efficient facility in Richmond California. Over the years we have taken on many industrial lines and have become one of the largest independent electrical distributors in the San Francisco Bay Area. Just last year we acquired Potter Electric of San Francisco which gave us a strong position in both the entertainment and government electrical markets. We are a third generation family owned and operated company with active principals in all three Beck Industry companies. The Beck family prides itself on being reasonable people who care about the history and future of this business, and the extremely dedicated employees who make us shine on a daily basis. Please don't hesitate to call and ask for Bill, Roger, Ray or Ron Beck if you ever have a complaint, concern or special request. We hope you take a few moments and look at our website to further inform yourself on the wide array of specialty items and manufacturers we represent.
