Our Team: The Tools Behind Our Success
Acme Tools is proud to celebrate a milestone moment — reaching 700 dedicated employees across our stores, service centers, and corporate locations. This achievement is more than a number; it’s a reflection of the people who have helped build one of America’s leading family-owned tool retailers.
Every department, from customer service and e-commerce to warehouse operations and repair, contributes to what makes Acme Tools thrive — a culture rooted in hard work, craftsmanship, and teamwork.
From Humble Beginnings to a National Presence
Our journey began in 1948, when Acme Tools started as a small electric motor repair shop in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Through decades of innovation and customer-first service, we’ve grown into a trusted name with retail stores across North Dakota, Minnesota, and Iowa, as well as an online store serving customers nationwide.
You can explore more about our roots and evolution on our Acme Tools History page, which highlights how a single repair shop became a national destination for professionals and DIYers alike.
Built by People Who Care
Behind every milestone are the people who make it happen. Our warehouse teams keep operations running seamlessly. Our sales and rental associates build lasting relationships. Our service and parts experts tackle complex repairs with precision. And our corporate teams ensure that every system and process supports our customers and coworkers.
Each of our 700 team members represents a story of skill, creativity, and collaboration — and together, they form the backbone of Acme Tools.
