Started on a loading dock in Elgin to sell shop supplies online, with nothing else in the way.
Brindlecrest began with one question from a small machine shop: why does buying a box of gloves need a branch, a sales rep and a contract? The answer was a website, a flat price list and same-day shipping from a dock in Elgin, Illinois.
Today Brindlecrest runs five distribution centers and its own customer service team in Illinois. Crestline is the house brand for the items people buy every week: bags, vests, socket sets and carts.
Business accounts are free and bring free shipping over $50, Net 30 terms for qualifying customers, tax-exempt purchasing and saved lists for reordering.
