Name originThe Imperatore brothers began as Imperatore Bros. Moving and Trucking in 1947, then bought the name and two trucks of A&P Trucking Corp. After legal wrangling with the A&P grocery chain in the 1950s, they added a trailing A to make A-P-A.The name is descriptive. Action Construction Equipment says what the company makes, and the logo shortens it to the initials ACE. Wikipedia does not explain why the word Action was chosen.
