Davis Family – Fastener Minute or Two…
ISSCO, Inc. was founded by our current CEO Joe L. Davis Jr. in the basement of his Independence home. Joe was in the fastener distribution business for years, but in 1974 he decided to open his own company. ISSCO was established with one goal in mind: efficiently and successfully servicing our customers. We’ve spent years perfecting the distribution of quality fasteners including bolts, nuts, screws, sockets and much more. Our product lines and inventory levels will continue to reflect our commitment to our customers throughout the Midwest. 40+ years later and we continue to build successful customer relationships with that same goal.
ISSCO, INC. publishes a quarterly newsletter called the Distribution Chat, and just released the Q1 2019 edition. Check it out!

For those in the transit and hauling industries, like heavy truck and trailer repair or Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM), fasteners need to be designed to precise specifications. When finding a distributor, companies need to understand that not all distributors offer the same service, options, and solutions. Here's a look at how ISSCO, INC, a Kansas City area based distirbutor has found decades of success within these industries. Not only does ISSCO assist with the rigorous fastener demands, but also our full range of services allows us to present customers with an entirely new degree of quality and performance.
As a leading fastener distributor, we’re able to develop custom fastener solutions for our customers. With automotive/transportation fasteners being such a specialized hub, ISSCO is evolving to meet the growing demands with innovative fastening solutions. As more people rely on mass transit or large trucks for their jobs, ISSCO is ready to provide you with a unique level of quality manufacturing and distributing services.
Why does ISSCO, INC. feel compelled to give back? As ISSCO's President, Jake Davis, elaborates on his experience, "Joe and Margaret Davis, my parents, set the precedence when it comes to giving back to the community. I watched from afar for many years and now it is my time to lead our organization as we seek to make a difference in our community."
First and foremost, the ISSCO team greatly values our customers, fulfilling their fastener needs, and creating strong and lasting relationships. We have built a strong company through our deep-rooted customer kinships and will continue to be committed to these relationships. With these evolving relationships, customers continually present us with challenges and questions. We consider ourselves consultants in the fastener supplier industry. Meeting the needs of our customers isn’t a one size fits all type of job, rather a custom solution for each customer. As a result of our service focus, we’ve consistently been a leader in offering effective solutions along with a full range of services.
As a family-owned and operated business, we are able to learn from each other, teach each other, make decisions together, and grow together as a family. The ISSCO work environment is unmatched in the fastener industry, and our service-first mindset provides continued success.
As a family owned and operated business, ISSCO, INC. is committed to giving back to the Kansas City community. Jake Davis, the ISSCO, INC. President, speaks about his motivation and character instilled in him at a young age that motivates him to keep giving back.
