History of Risco:
Industrial Tool and Supplies (Risco) is a leading industrial and safety solutions provider serving North America for four generations. Having been involved in the space for over 7 decades, we have enjoyed our working relationship with different companies and genuinely appreciate making their employees and environment safer.
Our company was founded in 1949 by Allen Berger. He saw the need for industrial supplies in the developing Swan Island and jumped at the opportunity. Starting in a rented industrial space next to the shipyards, he developed and grew the company to service the rest of the Pacific Northwest with industrial supplies.
Fast forward 70 years, and over 79 million products sold, we have expanded to service the whole United States with an in-person and online presence. Repping only the highest quality of brands and constantly innovating in the industrial space has allowed us to stay at the forefront.
We’ve accomplished all these notable milestones in the industrial space through effective collaboration with our various partners across the U.S. Working closely with multiple companies and their different internal teams to ensure the most successful outcome. We look forward to building on the legacy that has propelled this company through the last 7 decades.
