 Gator
Vacuum was established in 1989 in Coral Springs, FL
by Robert Buckwald. Having been born into the vacuum
business and taught by his father Arnold, who owned
several high volume vacuum stores in Brooklyn NY in
the 1960's, he already had a head start in the
industry at such a young age. Helping his father
after school and every Saturday repairing vacuums in
the 1970's provided him with on-the-job training and
overall knowledge of the vacuum industry, which
formed the core of who he is today. Learning
responsibility and helping customers at that age
made a real impression on Robert and taught him
valuable lessons on how to run a business. The vacuum business has evolved
from the days of disco balls, bell bottoms and
old-fashioned shag rugs. It's an ever-changing,
always innovated business. Having instilled
those same core values and
knowledge learned into
his own company, it has
allowed him to expand
from a small shop front into one of the largest leading and
well respected central
vacuum and commercial vacuum retailers in the
industry.
 Gator
started off in a 600 sq. ft. building in 1989 but
quickly had to expand due to the excellent service
and quality product offered. At this time we were
bursting at the seams and the inevitable was bound
to take place: so in 1994 we physically knocked down
walls and built out to grow to 1,200 sq. ft. The
same happened in 2000, and we doubled our size to
2,400 sq. ft. Thanks to you, our amazing customers,
after 20 years we are still in the same location,
now having expanded to a huge 4,000 sq. ft. showroom
and warehouse, as well as partnering with the
nations leading distributors and manufacturers all
over the United States, allowing us to get an array
of quality products to our customers faster and
passing the best price on to you, the consumer.
In today's society, while many retail
businesses have depreciated, we are fortunate and
humbled that our business has been able to flourish
within our community. With the advancements in
technology we were able to jump onto the information
super highway. In 2003 we set forth our efforts to
go nationwide with our business with the launch of
Thinkvacuums.com allowing customers to shop with
ease in the comfort of their homes.
Our
motto has always been:
"A well informed consumer
is
our best customer."
 With our highly educated and
well trained staff of certified technicians and
customer service representatives we are here to
answer any questions you may have. Having trouble
finding the right product for you? Our staff will be
more than happy to recommend the right system for
you while working within your budget.
