Davis Family – Fastener Minute or Two…

ISSCO, INC. offers Vendor Managed Inventory solutions, known as a VMI. The way to ensure your company would benefit from the setup of a VMI is to initiate a conversation about ISSCO helping you streamline your manufacturing processes. Together we can determine an agreed-upon amount of inventory to be stocked on location and at ISSCO. Our team will take a look at your historical annual usage to ensure inventory is accurate. We even offer a Consignment VMI option, which means you pay for the product only after it has been used.

By eliminating the burden of purchasing fasteners on a daily basis and relying on ISSCO for your inventories, you will see immediate benefits, including less purchase orders (spending less money), and a reduction or elimination of routine stock-outs or shutdowns. You now have time to concentrate on greater, more progressive projects for your company.

January 2019 was off to a productive start with a fill rate of 97.4%. ISSCO, INC. has been monitoring the fill rate and has announced a 6-month average of 97.3%. The goal of ISSCO as a fastener distributor is to maintain a superior level of customer service while maintaining transparency with our fill rates. 

ISSCO, INC. announced their five-month fill rate percentage for the period of August to December 2018. As a family-owned fastener distributor, it's been important for ISSCO to remain transparent with our fill rate and aim for continuous improvement each month. Check out our last five months of progress!

ISSCO, Inc. was founded by our current CEO Joe L. Davis Jr. in the basement of his Independence home.

ISSCO was established with one goal in mind: efficiently and successfully servicing our customers. We’ve spent years perfecting the distribution of quality fasteners including bolts, nuts, screws, sockets and much more. Our product lines and inventory levels will continue to reflect our commitment to our customers throughout the Midwest. 40+ years later and we continue to build successful customer relationships with that same goal.

Why does ISSCO, INC. feel compelled to give back? As ISSCO's President, Jake Davis, elaborates on his experience, "Joe and Margaret Davis, my parents, set the precedence when it comes to giving back to the community. I watched from afar for many years and now it is my time to lead our organization as we seek to make a difference in our community."

First and foremost, the ISSCO team greatly values our customers, fulfilling their fastener needs, and creating strong and lasting relationships.
