A ribbon-cutting celebration was held for T&B Industrial Supply this past weekend. The event took place at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, June 15th.
The company has been located at its current site but has recently opened a showroom next door and has also made additional improvements throughout business facilities.
Owner Brock Ward explained that the company started out ten years ago in Napoleon. There, the focus was on industrial salvage, which is still performed today.
In addition, however, started to bring in even more opportunities for growth. The addition was in the form of golf carts and UTV’s.
With more municipalities allowing the use of golf carts in their limits, Ward explained that sales numbers have been continuing to increase year over year.
He also explained that numbers have been so good to the point that his company is the largest dealer for Vivid EV Golf Carts in the country right now, outselling even dealers in Florida, and business is still growing.
The company moved to Archbold following a separation between Brock and his former business partner. Five years later, the change has allowed for growth and opportunity to take center stage in Archbold.
“It’s been awesome. I really can’t explain it. Year over year we have been seeing increases in revenue. We have been able to get bigger and bigger since adding golf carts.”
“Word of mouth has definitely helped to raise business. One reason why is because we pride ourselves in customer service,” said Ward.
Ward also spoke about his experiences since moving the company to Archbold. “I love Archbold. I really love the community and we have even transferred our kid’s school from Napoleon to Archbold.”
“We love the community; the people and we couldn’t ask for a better situation. Everyone has been very nice and supportive.”
