Rosenbauer America and North American Fire Equipment Company, Inc. (NAFECO) have joined forces to provide industry-pioneering apparatus for the fire service in the southeastern United States.

Founded in 1968 by Jerrell Oaks, NAFECO began its half-century business by providing fire extinguisher service and sales to factories and other companies in the area. Over the course of its 50-year history, the company developed into a full line distributor for fire, law enforcement, and industrial safety apparel and equipment, including fire apparatus, ambulances, and ATV/UTV-mounted skid units.

Superior customer service, timely deliveries, and competitive prices without compromise to quality have been the very foundation that built our company. We are excited to begin this partnership with Rosenbauer because we believe they hold the same high standards for their company.

Headquartered in Decatur, Alabama, NAFECO has four branch offices throughout the southeastern United States and has territory managers located in 12 states. Utilizing their sales, service, and mobile service expertise, NAFECO is eager to provide coverage and assistance in Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee.
