Posi Lock Puller receives SBA award

Posi Lock Puller received the U.S. Small Business Administration's 2013 North Dakota Small Business Exporter of the Year award.


“It is truly an honor to be recognized as SBA’s 2013 North Dakota Small Business Exporter of the Year,” said Tamara Somerville, vice president of Posi Lock Puller Inc., a Cooperstown, N.D., manufacturer of manual and hydraulic pullers. “We have aggressive international growth plans here at Posi Lock, and accepting this award is a fantastic milestone.”

Posi Lock Puller was founded 35 years ago by Dean Somerville when he developed a manual gear and bearing puller featuring a patented steel safety cage. Posi Lock Puller’s product line has since expanded to include hydraulic pullers, specialty tools and recently, the addition of the first 200-ton hydraulic puller in the U.S.

The annual Exporter of the Year award recognizes an exceptional small business that is successfully engaged in exporting. Posi Lock Puller was selected following a statewide competition. The company also has been recognized by the North Dakota Trade Office for its export accomplishments.
