Our oldest local customer was in for a new Tucker Brush this week

We hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day holiday weekend.  We enjoyed the three days away from the office.  Time to enjoy with friends and family...

This morning, the Tuesday, after Memorial Day, our oldest local customer came in to order a new 12 AT brush (pictured above).  It's not every day, when you have an opportunity to greet a customer who has been using our equipment for over 50-55 years.  He was thinking it was back in the 1950s.

He needed a new Tucker brush to clean his automobile.  His original brush cracked and he needed to be replaced.

Gene will turn 99 years old this year.  He and his wife have been married 76 years.  He continues to mow his own lawn, but he did give up mowing and fertilizing his neighbors yard a couple of years ago.

He mentioned today that he has bought our equipment for four locations over the years.  Gene is retired from the automotive and recreational vehicle trade.  He was telling about his adult children.  He mentioned some of them are retired now, as well.

We are excited about a possible new prospect from the Country of Botswana this week.  Over the years, we have enjoyed doing business in Nigeria, Egypt and other African nations.  Through FedEx, we ship to over 25 different foreign locations. 

One real strong market presently for the Tucker Pole is the Country Canada.  Whether it be the in-house professional at an educational institution or the contract professional for a window cleaning company, the Tucker Pole is a popular way to reach, wash and clean windows and other exterior surfaces.
