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.
