It all started in this
house in 1947.
|
In 1947, Carl
and Julia Carlson forever changed the horizon of the Fastening
and Packaging industries. With nothing more than a $350
cash investment, a used file cabinet, and their own enthusiasm,
Carlson Stapler and Supply was born.
Over 60 years since those humble beginnings, the
former Carlson Stapler and Supply has grown into a corporation
employing over 500 people - CARLSON HOLDINGS, INC. The familiar
“CSS” logo has been retained to symbolize Carlson
Companies’ strategy of providing service and support
