TJ Nowak Supply Company is a 70 year old business, based in Fort Wayne, Indiana providing technical services and industrial supplies to a regional customer base located in Northern Indiana, Southern Michigan and Western Ohio. We understand that a half century of business operations in and of itself means absolutely nothing unless a company can provide their customers effective, affordable direction in areas of life safety, risk analysis, and code compliance, combined with state of the art technology and products. That company is TJ Nowak Supply. Our company has several divisions each designed to allow our customers to enjoy multiple services provided by one supply partner. The business was opened in 1954 providing welding technology and hard goods. As that business grew industrial shield gasses and welding accessories were added to the companies' offerings. In the early 60's the fire protection group was formed, followed by the barricade and Jon rental business, (1970), safety and first aid groups, (1980), fire gear and equipment for first responders, (1985), wholesale balloon and gasses group, (1987), retail party products, (1992), and several acquisitions since then. In each since then. In each of these disciplines we enjoy the knowledge, not by our own definition but by that of our customers that we continue to meet or exceed their needs day in and out. Through our network of highly trained sales staff and service technicians we are able to be not only a supply partner but a solutions partner as well. I am sure the followinginformation will provide an insight into the services and products which TJ Nowak Supply Co. provides our customers.
