Learn the History of Becker Arena Products
In December of 1988, Jim Becker founded Becker Arena Products Inc. Originally known as Becker and Associates, the company began as an Olympia Ice Resurfacer Dealership and sold various ice rink supplies, dasher boards, and arena equipment as well. With a steady client base from the local community and school hockey rinks, the business grew quickly – expanding its product and service offerings at every step.
In 1994, the company officially became known as Becker Arena Products. This same year, the company began manufacturing its own dasher boards – a system that would eventually lead them to Nagano, Japan where its dasher boards were used in the construction of the 1998 Olympic Men’s Hockey Rink.
Today, Becker still serves the local hockey rinks and arenas that gave the company its start so many years ago. The business’s continued success has given it the opportunity to work with clients across North America, Europe, Asia, and Russia. But no matter where or how big a project may be, Becker provides each of its clients with the highest quality ice rink equipment and attentive customer service.
Becker Arena Products is America’s #1 source for rink supplies and equipment and has helped to build and maintain hundreds of facilities around the world. The company is based in Shakopee, Minnesota.
