About ETCO Incorporated from http://www.etco.com

ETCO Incorporated was founded in 1947 as Electric Terminal Corporation. The original company produced wall plug blades in strip form for attachment by the customer on a patented air operated machine. ETCO still produces wall plug blades at the Cord Products division, although the production speeds have increased from 175 parts per minute to as fast as 3,000 parts per minute. Last year Cord Products produced approximately half of all wall plug blades made in the USA.

As the years went on the company expanded the product line into thousands of different products, both catalog and custom designed products tooled for our customer's individual needs. Our proprietary products now represent approximately half our sales. Later the company was divided into several divisions representing distinct product areas. The reason for the divisional structure was to allow the divisions to act as responsively to customer needs as would a smaller manufacturer with the resources of a larger manufacturer. This formula has worked well and it is still the management's philosophy.

At ETCO we believe that old values and customer service should still be the rule. The mergers of today seem to have created companies that operate as if their needs supersede those of the customers. At ETCO no one will put you into voicemail unless you request it. At ETCO you will not be put on hold for more than 15 seconds without our checking back with you. At ETCO we won't take an order unless we can guarantee on time delivery and exact conformance to your requirements. At ETCO all managers, (including myself) are accessible and will call you back. The founders of ETCO had very basic values based on integrity. Today we still live by those values. Please feel free to call us if you have a question; I promise you a human will answer.
