HOSEPCO Commemorates Centennial

August 28, 2019

HOSPECO recently marked its 100th year of business.

Founded in 1919, the company was also one of the first members of ISSA. Today HOSPECO works with more than 1,200 independent distributors and employs 450 workers, with headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio, and facilities in Knoxville, Tenn.; Sparks, Nev; and Irvine, Calif.

“For 100 years, HOSPECO has been growing strategically, innovating, and creating true end-user value in each of our core product categories. But our success has been a result of our distribution partners who have supported us all these years,” said Bill Hemann, HOSPECO’s vice president of sales and marketing. “We personally and professionally value all of our distributors and, really, our world revolves around them. In addition, we couldn’t have continued to grow, maintain relevance, and innovate for over 100 years without the talent and dedication of our HOSPECO team, whose passion and dedication to our mission and our customers will continue for the next 100 years.”
