Does anyone know what happened to Burke? We cannot seem to locate the firm.

It probably has been bought by General Sneakers or Disney.

Any lead would be appreciated.

A search on this website turned up a couple of Burke's, with additional letters (BCI Burke or Burke Edoco, for example). Since I don't know what Burke you mean, that's the only help I can give...

Interesting that the link works as the link just to the domain does not work. I had called them recently and they said the website was down.

They are owned by Dayton Superior.

The old Burke as you probably remember them was originally purchased by Aluma Systems from Canada, slowly they sold off all the locations and only Edico keep the Burke name. They where known as great company to train with, but the overall company was a whore in the industry. Aluma Systems got into trouble with them that is why they sold every off.
