George A. Kint Inc

George and Virginia's Story: In the spring of 1954, George A. Kint was working at Pennsy Supply in Harrisburg, PA. One day he was approached by Bill Muller to purchase a very small fire extinguisher business. Bill was getting ready to retire and wanted someone with integrity to take care of his customers. After much convincing, and approval of his wife Virginia, they bought the company on March 9th, 1954. This is the same year Ray Kroc started McDonalds and Sports Illustrated released their first issue. Not bad company, huh? Soon George and Virginia would need more room for equipment. They purchased a small home with a two-car garage on North 14th Street in Harrisburg. It was in this garage where the George A. Kint Company was started.
