For this dealer spotlight, we reached out to Willy, at SIRCO Industrial Supply in Erie, Pennsylvania.  Willy has one of the very first Tubes n’ Hoses systems ever sold, in fact, it was a hand cranked system that he has since updated.

Describe your business.  We sell safety supplies, street signage, hose, belts, fume & dust collection hose, steam pressure washer, conveyor belting and gauges.

Why did you pick this particular kind of business?  This is a family business, 2nd & 3rd generations.
