Travers Tool Company, which has corporate headquarters in Flushing, New York, and distribution centers in South Carolina and California, is celebrating its 100-year anniversary this year.

"To us, this milestone signifies 100 years of innovation, dedication, and service," said Bruce Zolot, president of Travers Tool Co. Inc. "What began as a humble—and local—venture in
1924 has blossomed into a multi-location distribution business providing top-quality metalworking tools to industries and shops nationwide."

Founded in New York in 1924 by David Trevas, Travers Tool Company has been committed to quality, value, and availability. Through World War II and the 1950s, Travers grew into a trusted metalworking supplier for the Northeast region in the USA.

The sixties saw Barry Zolot introduce the inaugural catalog, expanding the company's reach nationwide. Throughout the seventies and beyond, Travers Tool broadened its product line and embraced global sourcing. The eighties and nineties brought state-of-the-art warehouses and international branches, enhancing service and innovation.

Since the turn of the century, the company has expanded its service and product offerings, ensuring machinists always find the right tool.

Now, in its 100th year, Travers Tool celebrates a century of excellence, innovation, and dedication, continuing to serve industries with a seamless shopping experience and a commitment to the future.

Travers Tool has navigated a century of challenges and triumphs, consistently evolving to meet the ever-changing needs of its customers. From pioneering cutting-edge technologies to an ongoing commitment to craftsmanship and precision, the company's journey has been defined by a passion for excellence, reliability, continuous improvement, and problem-solving for its customers.

"Our journey has been defined not only by a passion for excellence in product but also by a drive for reliability, continuous improvement, and problem-solving for our customers at every step," said Bruce Zolot, the current 4th-generation family president.

Central to Travers Tool's success is its dedicated team of professionals. "We credit our dedicated team of professionals at Travers, whose expertise, creativity, and tireless efforts have propelled us forward," said Zolot.
