S&S Sales

Celebrating 40 years in 2020

It all Started in 1980

The company was founded by Tom Nelson and Woody Grandstaff in 1980 focusing its core business in Retail, Farm, and Hardware Distributors.  

Then a shared phone line, aspirations to serve an industry, and a card table between them is all that kept the vision that would grown into the company that is S&S Sales today.

Changing of the guard

Today the company is guided and owned by Bob Kane with offices in IL, TX, and MN.   Bob Kane joined S&S Sales as a partner in 2002, shortly thereafter purchasing the company in 2004.

S&S Sales continues to serve its Retail, Farm and Hardware channels with the same fortitude it did when it first was incorporated.  Executed by a great team of office, sales, and service staff it looks to the future and is poised to succeed in the new  Omni-channel market landscape.
