It began in 1978 as a car care product and cleaning chemical sales venture. Earl Peachey called his new company Epco. Genuine value and a heart for the real needs of the customer were his motto. His list of smiling customers grew in bounds, and soon he added fasteners and power transmission to the lineup.

Glenn Yoder bought the enterprise in 1987 with visions of continuing to build the service legacy of Epco as a local fastener and maintenance supply company. It was a small beginning involving the whole Yoder family. Unloading trucks by hand, and working in an unheated barn, eventually gave way to broader offerings and bigger facilities as the customer base has expanded. Now Glenn’s sons, Luke and Tim, have taken ownership.

Today business owners, purchasing agents, service managers, and maintenance managers are continuing to discover the one-of-a-kind company Epco has become. Small enough to serve its clients exceptionally well yet large enough to give breadth and depth of products – it’s a perfect match for the metalworking related enterprises that make up the fabric of our communities. Epco is here to help you succeed.
