Purple Wave spent some time with its customers on June 11, 2025, at March First Brewery in Blue Ash, Ohio.

Tim Keane, district sales director, Great Lakes, and Jim VonHandorf, territory sales manager of southwest Ohio and southeast Indiana, invited customers from the construction, agriculture, trucking and equipment dealership and rental industries for a laid-back evening of good conversation.

Future events are planned in Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio, in July, as well as Toledo, Ohio, Fort Wayne, Ind., and Detroit, Mich., in August and September

"We're really excited to be expanding into Ohio — this event is just the first of many we've got planned," said Keane. "One of the best parts of being in the construction and equipment business is the relationships we build and getting to be part of the communities we work in."
