S.&T. Technologies supervisor Steve Watson and principal Andrew Sarlo (the “S” in S&T) cut the ribbon for the grand opening of their new Sudbury office on June 13.

S.&T. Group, a Sault Ste. Marie multi-trade business, has been acquired by Team Group.

The Markham-based company made the announcement in a Sept. 6 news release.

"I am excited to welcome the S.&T. Group into the Team Group family," said Clint Griffin, CEO of Team Group, in the release.

"With (owners) Dennis and Andrew's ongoing leadership and deep expertise in the multi-trades business, our customers will continue to receive exceptional service, now with the added benefit of an expanded service offering. The knowledge and experience gained through this acquisition will further distinguish Team Group from other service providers."

Established in 1984 by Andrew Sarlo and Dennis Tatasciore, the company started out providing electrical and technological solutions in the Algoma District. Since then, it’s expanded to include mechanical, refrigeration, and general contracting divisions.

This year, the company is marking four decades in business with a series of 40th anniversary celebrations, which includes an expansion to Sudbury.

Team Group said existing employees and the management team, led by Sarlo and Tatasciore, would remain, as would the “same high standards of service and quality.”

"Andrew Sarlo and I have had the pleasure and honour to have worked in this company providing good jobs while building a successful business in Northern Ontario," Tatasciore said in the release.

"Without our excellent staff and loyal and trusted customers, we would not have gotten here. We look forward to working with Clint and Team Group and expanding our services throughout Ontario for the continuation of great jobs for our people and great value for our clients."

Team Group’s services include facility management, paint shop cleaning, and industrial cleaning solutions. Headquartered in Taylor, MI, the company has divisions in Canada, China and Thailand.
