Thanks so much Tyler! Here is some info about us. About our winches, the PS654 are made in the U.S. while the recovery winches are imported.

History
Jeff Pierce graduated from Texas Tech University in 1976 and wanted to be his own boss. Pierce began his business with his late father, George Pierce, selling consignment boats, cars and anything with a motor. Under his retail identity, Pierce Sales, Pierce quickly became one of the largest distributors of Ramsey winches in 1978. Pierce broke ties with Ramsey and started his own manufacturing of industrial and self recovery winches. Pierce acquired the replacement parts and drawings for Desert Dynamic, Thor and Viking winches in the 1990s. The PS654 series worm gear electric winches were designed by Pierce's close friend, John Glew. Glew's simple and efficient design has endured three decades of heavy wear and tear.
Current
The father-son heritage continues as Wade Pierce, Jeff's oldest son, joins his father at Pierce Arrow. Wade graduated from Abilene Christian University in 2008 with a business management degree.
