Industrial Valco was founded in 1947 by Charles "Nick" Nichols in his garage following the conclusion of World War II to supply reconditioned valves to industry.

Today, with warehouses nationwide, an inventory in the tens of millions and stocking more than 25,000 line items, Industrial Valco is proudly fulfilling what Nick humbly sought out to do from his garage in 1947; be a convenient "one stop shop" for distributors looking to fill their shorts and help them grow their business.
