Acme Tools today announced it has reentered Internet retailing to provide customers with the added option of ordering products online. The new acmetools.com website features the latest e-commerce technologies and e-retailing's finest assortment of tools, equipment and accessories in the industry.
"Acme Tools is once again offering consumers the flexibility, convenience and value of doing business with us online," said Steve Kuhlman, vice president of corporate operations for Acme Tools. "Acme is committed to setting the standards for customer service and shopping experience in the online marketplace for tools and equipment."
Acme Tools' new website is designed to provide maximum site availability and response time performance that will optimize the customer's shopping experience. More than 10,000 products will be offered on the site. Acme's new site provides unique features and functions for consumers researching their purchase or comparison shopping online. Acmetools.com is the only tools and equipment website supplying extensive product specifications for every product and providing customers the exclusive option of shopping by trade, category or brand.
"Consumers are increasingly showing their preference for Web stores," stated Paul Kuhlman, vice president of merchandise operations and marketing for Acme Tools. "Our new retail website will keep us competitive and provide growth opportunities in the future."
Acme Tools pioneered a national catalog business that led to Acme launching one of the first and most successful Internet tool stores in the industry. Acme sold the online and catalog sales division to Amazon.com in 1999. Acme Tools has spent the ensuing years expanding its retail locations in Iowa and Minnesota.
