They're based out of Burnsville, MN and in my opinion they are one of the coolest store to check out. Stuff I didn't even know existed do exist at NTEC. They have stuff like pressure washers that cost as much as a down payment on a small condo and if you want a dollie...they have about 12 in all different sizes and shapes.
I came in looking for a big push broom for a client of mine....don't ask. I went to Homie D. (Home Depot) Lowe's, Wally Walmart, and Ace. No one seem to have a decent push broom that didn't cost $80. So I came here out of suggestion by the nice folks at Graingers....a shout out to those guys there...
Now most place have just one kind of push broom but not NTEC. I think I counted at lest 4. I didn't know there was such a big market for them....
Well I ended with one for less than $20 and according to the packaging it was made in the USA.
For fun I wanted to throw some rope, black trash bags and a shovel into my order to see if I would get followed by Homeland Security....I did get a good laugh out of the cashier.....
