RENO, NEVADA, UNITED STATES, August 29, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Made in USA products offered on USAB2C.com run the gamut from: toys, to tools, homegoods, towels, work & dress gloves, kitchen gear, work & trouble lights, decorative windmills, sunglasses, children's shoes, scissors, office clocks, nail clippers and more. This month, "METRO-Vacuum Cleaner Company" is featured.

In December of 1939, Hyman Gulker pawned his pocket watch and gave $50 to his son-in-law, Israel, and daughter, Pearl Stern. That was the beginning of Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Company Inc. (METRO-Vac) and our AMERICAN DREAM. Prior to starting METRO, Israel worked for a number of major floor care Co.'s, selling vacuum cleaners door to door. He was such a great salesman, the president of the last Co. he worked for offered him $100 to come back to work for him. Israel's wife Pearl, said nothing doing, we're on our own now!

Over the last eighty years, METRO-Vac has evolved into a multidivisional corporation. From a small retail store front in the Bronx, NY, rebuilding and selling vacuum cleaners. METRO-Vac is now a diversified multi-unit, manufacturing facility in 2005, producing amongst other products; Data-Vac Computer Cleaning Systems and Air Force Dog Dryers.

The early years for METRO-Vac was devoted to the distribution and retailing of vacuum cleaners. From 1946 - 1949, the main core of METRO-Vac's business was the reconditioning and sale of vacuum cleaners to retail specialty stores, 5 & Dime and mail order houses.

In 1951 Jules Stern, son of Israel and Pearl, joined the business. Between 1957 - 1970 METRO-Vac introduced three innovative industry "firsts": a popularly priced, 110-volt handheld vacuum cleaner. In 1964 the first 12-volt automotive hand held vacuum cleaner that plugged into a cigarette lighter outlet. With the introduction of these two overwhelmingly successful products, demand outstripped production capabilities and a move to larger quarters was necessary. In 1968 METRO-Vac moved into its own 32,000 square foot building in Suffern, NY. In 1970 METRO-Vac introduced another industry first, the Metro Duo-Volt, the world's first and still only dual voltage (110V-12V) hand held vacuum cleaner, designed for home and car use.

In 1974, Kenneth Stern, the eldest son of Jules, joined METRO-Vac, adding a third generation of Sterns to the family business. Through the seventies and into the eighties METRO-Vac introduced many different models of vacuum cleaners from compact powerful canisters to full size vacuum cleaners.

In the eighties, METRO-Vac aggressively diversify into new industries. David Stern, Jules' youngest son, entered the Co. in 1984. Since then under the keen eyes of Jules, President, Kenneth, VP of National Sales and David, VP of Marketing, many new and different markets have been opened for METRO-Vac products.

METRO-Vac is now a major factor in the computer/office product industry with "Metro Data-Vac Computer Cleaning System" designed to avoid costly computer downtime.
