Power Pin Inc. Expands Product Offering

A year ago, Power Pin started a line of on-road hitches for trucks and trailers called the "Hit N Hitch" product line. Power Pin won the Gold Award for Innovation at the 2014 Farm Show. Additionally, at the 2014 Farm Show, Power Pin, in conjunction with Princess Auto, announced Hit N Hitch was being carried across Canada by Princess Auto.

This is what Princess Auto said:
"Princess Auto has 36 retail locations coast-to-coast in Canada, and our stores appeal to customers who are looking for a great value, great service and, of course, our unique product assortment. Primarily, our customer base are truck driving, trailer hauling hard-working types, who need dependable products that won’t hurt their budget.

"Princess Auto prides itself on being the unique world of tools and equipment, and a big part of the magic that makes the unique world is being open to talking to inventors and tinkers, and receiving honest feedback from the folks who use our goods. We don’t strive to replicate big box chains and often go our own way. That is definitely the fun part about Princess Auto: it is all of our responsibility to seek out unique ways to go to market.

"When I first met the group from Power Pin, I was immediately impressed by the product. That’s no surprise, it was built by creative thinkers who understand the product because it’s the type of product they would use regularly. Add to this particular product story the fact this product is 100 percent designed and engineered right here in Canadian prairies, we were sure we had the makings of a great product line.

"Power Pin won the Best New Invention for an in-cab tractor hitching system at the 1988 Farm Progress Show and their farmer invention has grown to make Power Pin the world's largest manufacturer of tractor /implement drawbar hitching components. Power Pin has built on that foundation to bring the same innovation to on-road with five new patents that will greatly improve the safety and ease of truck/trailer coupling. This is a perfect coupling of two Canadian companies.

"Princess Auto is very excited about this partnership, and we are really looking forward to the feedback once this line hits our store shelves!"

Power Pin has 27 hitching-related patents and is very excited to enter the on-road hitching marketplace. Brian Olson is extremely thankful for the tremendous support his hitching products has received from all AMC members.
