Sep 15, 2006, 10:47 AM

Two of the pool industry's well-known companies, Imperial International and J-S Sales, have announced their decision to merge the two companies into what will now be known as Imperial-JS.

Mike DiMotta, president of Imperial International, will stay at the helm of the newly merged company, while Janet Shimel, formerly president of J-S Sales, will remain with Imperial-JS as a consultant and good will ambassador.

“The merger of Imperial and JS brings more than 110 years of combined knowledge of service and supply to the billiard industry into one organization,” DiMotta said.

J-S Sales will be closing their Elmsford, N.Y. location and moving into Imperial’s Hasbrouck Heights, N.J. location. In the coming weeks and months customers around the country will be able to buy direct from the three Imperial-JS shipping locations in New Jersey, Illinois and California.
