Company
History |
| |
| |
 |
It all began back in 1929 on
West Jackson Street in Chicago as the Harold
E. Saper
Company.
The company rewound armatures and sold some
vacuum cleaner repair parts. In 1945, the
company moved to a 14,000 sq. ft., four story
facility on North Clark Street, also in Chicago.
The company was purchased by the current owners
in 1970. The company name was changed to HESCO
in 1978. In 1983, Hesco moved to a new facility
of 28,000 sq. ft. on Roscoe Street, also in
Chicago. The next year, our first Regional
Warehouse, Hesco West, opened in Phoenix,
Arizona. |

During this time, Hesco's product line increased
to include Sanitary Maintenance Supplies,
Chemicals, and Carpet Care Products while
also expanding on the Vacuum Cleaner Repair
Part lines. Due to this new marketing philosophy
and explosive growth, in 1986, we moved our
Corporate Headquarters and Midwest Shipping
Facility to Niles, Illinois. This 73,000 sq.
ft. facility served as our company's Headquarters,
Sales Office, Shipping Facility and Distribution
Center.
In the following years, we opened our Regional
Shipping Warehouses. In 1989, we opened Hesco
Northeast in Lancaster, Pennsylvania; in 1990,
Hesco Southeast in Austell, Georgia; and in
1991 we opened Grand Prairie, Texas. |

During 1995, we opened our next two facilities,
Hesco East, in Elkridge, Maryland and Hesco
Northeast in Westfield, Massachusetts, we
closed our branch in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
While all of these openings were going on,
in 1993, Hesco unveiled a new Distribution
Center and Regional Shipping Warehouse in
Columbus, Ohio. This modern facility keeps
all of our Regional Warehouses stocked with
over 40,000 sku's with our fill-rate being
over 98%, day after day. This Distribution
Center gives us the capabilities to open several
more locations. |

|
| With all this growth, modernization, and moving,
all of us at Hesco are still able to keep
our focus on what has made us the leading
distributor in the industry... YOU, our customer.
We look forward to serving you with the utmost
care and respect you deserve. |
