Started with nothing more than a vision and an entrepreneurial spirit, AmeriLux International was formed in May 2004. AmeriLux is a value-adding distributor of multiwall and corrugated polycarbonate sheet products, PVC sheet and liner panels, and steel coil. Headquartered in De Pere, Wisconsin, AmeriLux sources and distributes materials from and to companies around the world. It is by building and maintaining strategic, win-win partnerships with vendors, customers, and employees that AmeriLux is able to profitably – and sustainably – grow its business. With an emphasis on customer service and support, AmeriLux International seeks to provide its customers with creative, cost-effective solutions to their unique challenges. This solutions-focused mentality has driven facility expansions and key equipment investments, enabling AmeriLux to provide a variety of fabrication services, component assembly, and turn-key manufacturing solutions. Strongly committed to educating the architectural, building, and construction communities on the benefits of using its products, AmeriLux International provides distance learning courses, webinars, and in-person presentations whereby continuing education units can be earned. These online educational programs are free, one-hour-long programs that focus on topics such as energy efficiency, polycarbonate glazing solutions, and sustainable design. This has led to a greater grass roots demand for their products. To reduce lead times and improve on-time delivery with key customers, AmeriLux International started AmeriLux Transportation — a trucking company with its own drivers and equipment — in June 2012. AmeriLux Transportation is a direct delivery carrier and regularly operates in the US. With the recent formation of AmeriLux Logistics, AmeriLux now has access to a network of qualified carriers and a wide range of freight shipping services - yet another offering to better serve the marketplace!
The Big O Tires story begins back in 1962, just as Americas new love affair with the automobile was hitting high gear. The market for replacement tires was exploding, and independent tire dealers found themselves struggling to compete in the face of low prices offered by major tire manufacturers own company stores. Big Os founding fathers were a handful of progressive independent tire dealers who decided to band together to form a tire-buying cooperative so that they could secure volume pricing and keep their customers happy. Their concept worked. In the years that followed, The Big O Tires co-op evolved into a full-fledged franchise as it continued to find innovative ways to harness the power of the collective to benefit independent dealerships and their customers. Almost a half-decade later, Big O Tires has become North Americas largest retail tire franchisor, with over 400 independently-owned and operated locations in 20 states, providing customers with a broad range of automotive services in addition to quality tires, wheels and accessories. Big O has become an industry role model admired for its innovative approach to franchising and unmatched customer loyalty ratings. In 1996, Big O Tires joined forces with one of the largest and most respected tire marketers in the nation when it became part of the TBC Retail Group, an automotive retail network comprised of some 1,200 Big O Tires, Tire Kingdom, Merchants and NTB locations spanning 40 U.S. states. Big Os reach was broadened again in 2005, when TBC Corporation was acquired by Sumitomo Corporation of America, the largest wholly-owned subsidiary of Tokyo-based Sumitomo, one of the worlds leading traders of goods and services. As Big O Tires continues to thrive and adapt to an ever-changing marketplace, it remains rooted in its humble beginnings as a proud collective of independent dealers committed to putting its customers first.
