Bill Gempler started his Monroe, Wisconsin tire business in 1939, making easy mobile repairs for farmers. Over the years, he and others expanded the company, offering thousands of products that make the hardest outdoor jobs easier.
The beefy Gempler’s “Big Book” became the trusty companion of hard-working folks and companies all across America - found in workshops and tool sheds big and small.
But today, fierce internet and big box competitors have put more pressure than ever before on small independent companies like Gempler’s. We’ve got to roll up our sleeves and rededicate ourselves to the things that matter most to us, and you.
Things like finding the best and most innovative products. Pricing them fairly. Giving you friendly, helpful service every time you call. Backing everything with our guarantee. And, if you’re a small business, doing everything we can to help you grow.
My name is Carl Atwell. I’ve been an admirer of Gempler’s for many years. As of January 1st, a group of friends and I bought the company. It’s like a dream come true.
If you’re one of the small business owners we’ve served over the years, you know how I feel. My head is full of ideas for new products, new services - a whole new Gempler’s. But I admit, I’ve got butterflies in my stomach too.
I’m grateful for the business you’ve given us over the years, and hope you’ll continue on this journey with us. To say thank you, I would like to give you
20% off your next purchase. Please let us know what you need on the job that we don’t currently offer. And tell us how we’re doing, and what we can do better. Email me directly:
carl@gemplers.com I promise you, the best is yet to come.
