The idea to start Growler Goods was born as an extension of our lifestyle and our love of dogs. We have an obsession with classic style, the great outdoors, and our pups. Central to our philosophy is the delivery of American made, eco friendly products allowing dog owners to outfit their pets with comfortable goods made from the highest quality materials. We take a back to basics stance on the design and construction of every product ? replacing plastics with good old fashioned metals, cotton, and wood as well as working towards minimizing the use of petroleum based source materials.

Along with delivering quality goods, we're devoted to the cause of helping dogs however we can. With the purchase of every Growler Goods product, we can help to give back to dogs in need by donating a percentage of proceeds to various dog charities. Ultimately, it's our long term mission to form our own non profit organization and we're excited to be moving closer towards that goal every day. We invite you to stay in touch and collaborate if you share our passions.

Philosophy

The heritage of America is one of rugged individualism and this ethos is woven into everything we create. In today's modern world, it seems that many of the intrinsic core needs of life have been forgotten. We've decided to focus on bringing the den instinct back to the fore of a dog's everyday existence as it's in this state that they are truly at peace with their surroundings. Our products are designed and hand-crafted to align organically with the natural world and all it has to offer - an ecological approach.

One of the products Metro sells is Made in the USA Pet Grooming. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.

For more information about Metro and its American Made products see the following:

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, that was the beginning of our AMERICAN DREAM. Prior to starting METRO, Israel worked for a number of major floor care companies, selling vacuum cleaners door to door. He was such a great salesman, the president of the last company 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!

MetroSince 1939, the Metropolitan Vacuum Cleaner Co., Inc. has evolved into a multidivisional corporation. From a small retail store front in the Bronx, NY, rebuilding and selling vacuum cleaners. Metro is now a diversified multi-unit, manufacturing facility, producing amongst other products, Data-Vac Computer Cleaning Systems to Air Force Dog Dryers.

The early years for Metropolitan were solely devoted to vacuum cleaners. Metro was totally involved in the distribution and retailing of vacuum cleaners. During the period of years, from 1946 through 1949, the main core of Metro'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 on a full-time basis. Between 1957 and 1970 Metro introduced three innovative industry firsts: In 1957, a popularly priced, 110-volt handheld vacuum cleaner. In 1964 the first 12-volt automotive hand held vacuum cleaner that plugged into the cigarette lighter outlet of cars. With the introduction of these two overwhelmingly successful products, demand outstripped production capabilities and a move to larger quarters was necessary. In 1968 Metro moved into its own 32,000 square foot building in Suffern, NY. In 1970 Metro introduced another industry first, the Metro Duo-Volt, the world's first and still only dual voltage (110V-12V) hand held vacuum cleaner, designed to work in the home and in the car.
In 1974, Kenneth Stern, the eldest son of Jules, joined Metro, adding a third generation of Sterns to the family business. Through the seventies and into the eighties Metro introduced many different models of vacuum cleaners from compact powerful canisters to full size vacuum cleaners. It was during this time that Metro introduced DATAVAC.

MetroIn the eighties, Metro aggressively began to diversify into new and different industries. David Stern, Jules' youngest son, entered the company on a full-time basis in 1984. David spearheaded the introduction of AIR FORCE pet dryers. By January of 1989, Metro's Air Force Pet Grooming Dryer Division, was catapulted to the top of the pet dryer industry and now has distribution throughout the world. Under the keen eyes of Jules, President, Kenneth, Vice-President of National Sales and David, Vice-President of Marketing, many new and different markets have been opened for Metro products.

Metro is now a major factor in the computer/office product industry with Metro Data-Vac Computer Cleaning Systems. Data-Vac Computer Cleaning Systems are designed to avoid costly downtime. Ever so important, is the cleanup and maintenance of computers, printers, laser printers and copiers.

2001 proved to be extraordinary for Metro for a number of reasons, Continuous growth of the Data Vac division, Metro's Magic Air Division which markets high volume pumps and inflator/deflators to the marine, camping and sporting goods industries. Magic Air pumps are also used to inflate emergency inflatable shelters for medical and decontamination purposes. Metro is concentrating on expanding all of these diverse product categories with the introduction of new products in each of their divisions.

Metro entered the motorcycle industry in April, 2002, with the Air Force Blaster Motorcycle Dryer. The Metro Air Force Blaster motorcycle dryer was specifically designed for cleaning and drying motorcycles with dry, filtered warm air (about 20-25 degrees above ambient temperature). The Metro Air Force Blaster will cut cleaning time by 80%. Five to seven minutes is all it takes to quickly and effectively dry motorcycles. The Blaster is the hottest new motorcycle care product to come out in decades and is completely safe for all paint and chrome finishes.

From 2002 through 2007 we continued to expand our presence, product lines and market penetration into the various markets we serve. As the rest of the world economies expanded so did we.

MetroIn the 4th quarter of 2008, Metropolitan Vacuum introduced the DataVac Electric Duster, a safe, green alternative to controversial and potentially dangerous canned-air dusting products. DataVac Electric Duster is certainly safer and more environmentally friendly than canned air dusters but the extraordinary cost savings, superior cleaning performance and greater versatility over the throwaway cans have caused sales to takeoff. Canned air is also misused by teenagers to get high through huffing which has caused countless deaths. The ED-500 is perfectly safe and Blows clean, dry, filtered air safe for all computer/electronic equipment, printers, copiers, fax machines, digital cameras, etc. Condensation-free it contains no dangerous propellants.

Additionally, in 2008, we entered the automotive industry with a full line of car vacuum cleaners from the Metropolitan 500 (500 watt hand held) to the JUMBO VAC N BLO wall mounted garage vacuum cleaner. We also introduced a line of car dryers which will completely dry an entire full size car in 15 minutes when the MASTER BLASTER is used. Both product lines are targeting detailers and the automotive enthusiast world wide.

2009 marked our 70th year anniversary in business which is a major milestone in this day and age. About 70 per cent of family businesses never make it to the second generation, according to a recent Grant Thornton research study. A stunning 90 per cent of family companies go bust before a third generation can take over the management of the firm. So with three generations of Stern management we are bucking the trend, manufacturing products in the USA and continuing to grow in a very chaotic and unsettled economy.

In September of 2010, three young entrepreneurs from Minnesota approached Metro with a new concept for a T-ball baseball/tennis training tool. The new Hit Zone Air-Suspension Tee was developed by a former Minnesota Twins slugger to make tee practice, more fun and a lot more effective. Hit Zone is a great way to improve any player's swing! Hit Zone eliminates tee shyness which causes players to swing high to avoid accidentally damaging the tee. With Hit Zone, if a player hits the patented fabric nozzle, the bat or racket passes right through with no damage and the reinforced fabric nozzle pops back up instantly. After developing a product line for the trio and manufacturing it for them, we liked it so much we bought the company. In April of 2012, the HIT ZONE division was created and incorporated into METRO. The acquisition of HIT ZONE SPORTS has brought us into a whole new, huge market of baseball and tennis accessories, Jules explained.

It is available in Baseball & Tennis Models. Please visit hitzonesports.com for more information.

Each and every year, I'm so very proud of what we have accomplished over the last 7 plus decades, explained Jules, President and CEO. It is very gratifying to produce quality products right here in the USA that actually work and are durable. We will continue to innovate and introduce new products into the markets we serve and carry on the tradition that my parents (Israel and Pearl) started in 1939!

Your Source to Live Allergy Free: Allergy Products for Personal and Home Use

Welcome to National Allergy, one of the nation's largest asthma, sinus and allergy products suppliers. Our goal is to help make your environment allergen free. The allergy products we carry are for personal and home use, and are offered at a competitive price!

Our caring approach to allergy relief sets us apart from other companies. Our customers consistently comment on our commitment to selling only effective allergy relief products, our 60-day 100% satisfaction guarantee on all of our products, and our dedication to having friendly and knowledgeable customer service representatives available so you can reach a live person to answer your questions without being transferred around multiple times. Our goal is to provide accurate education as well as tested and proven products to complement physician prescribed treatment for allergy, asthma, and sinus patients.

In 1988, Mr. and Mrs. Ryner Wittgens began allergy proofing their home for their daughter, Katie, who was diagnosed with six different airborne allergies. As a result of their effort to locate products (many of which were not easy to find at that time) the Wittgens family decided to open their own allergy products business. What began first as a local effort to make products available to allergy sufferers quickly developed into a direct mail company serving the Southeast and then the entire nation. Today, more than 10,000 doctors around the country have sent their patients to National Allergy for products to reduce indoor allergens improve indoor air quality and help you breathe a sigh of relief. We think you'll notice a refreshing difference doing business with us.


Patient Support
In any business customer satisfaction is the key to success. Businesses grow because customers are satisfied. National Allergy has two customers, the ultimate purchaser of our products and the physician who recommends us. Our goal, at which we have been successful, is for the patient to be so satisfied with our products and services that the physician hears only good reports. So how do we do it?

Highly trained and very experienced Customer Service Representatives
CSRs are salaried, callers aren't rushed or pressured to make a purchase
Continual training on both products and health conditions
Free patient e-mail newsletter focused on helpful education
A focus on products appropriate for the patient's diagnosis
Web site with loads of helpful information
Quick attention to patients who have questions or need help with a product
Printed patient educational literature
Physician Partnership
With over 10,000 referring physicians and literally hundreds of thousands of patient referrals from them, we know what it means to partner with doctors. Some of the ways that partnership is exemplified include our support and attendance at annual doctor meetings, advertising in their professional journal, our willingness to visit offices to perform staff training, and our indigent patient program. Over the years, we have donated thousands of encasings to patients who are most in need. Looking ahead, National Allergy will continue to be a partner physicians can trust as we work together toward the goal of improved patient outcomes.

Physician Services
In our many years of working with physicians and their staff, we have tried to listen to their requests for services and information which would hopefully increase patient compliance for recommended environmental controls. Our mutual goal has been, and remains, for our products to enhance overall effectiveness of patient treatment as prescribed by the physician. In responding to thousands of doctors, the following items and services are being provided free of charge for doctor's offices that recommend National Allergy to their patients:

Patient product literature
Educational literature
Bedroom allergen avoidance posters
Swatches of encasing fabrics
Online physician services
Sample pillow encasings
Testing & Evaluation
Making claims about a product's effectiveness is easy?knowing the claim is accurate is not quite as easy. At National Allergy, we believe we owe every referring physician and every customer the comfort of knowing that our claims can be relied upon. We have our own in-house testing equipment, including particle counters for testing air cleaners, vacuum cleaners and filtration products. In addition, we use recognized independent testing laboratories to test the effectiveness of our encasings and other products. In short, we take every step possible to try to be certain our products perform as advertised.

Commercial & Wholesale Division
National Allergy provides allergy, asthma and sinus relief products to a variety of users in addition to physician referred patients. Numerous state and federal institutions, hospitals, etc. count on National Allergy Supply for products to use in their operations. There are also national and international retailers who purchase our products for resale. Our Commercial Account Executive and staff work exclusively with these commercial customers.

Manufacturing
Made in America, by company employees! That's right. While most sewers are going off shore, all of our encasings are made in our own sewing plant in North Georgia. Not only does this allow us to contribute to the American economy, but it also allows us to have total control over production. We have special processes to be sure our encasings, including seams and zippers, don't leak! And we thoroughly inspect every single encasing we make. Most manufacturers inspect random samples, but we decided that was not good enough for our customers. Our goal is to make the best encasings in the world. And when we do, we begin looking for ways to make them even better!

The Quality Process

Skilled operators, superior fabrics, the right equipment and careful inspection are all components of excellent quality. At National Allergy Supply, we not only have all these components, but we also have the extra motivation of Employee Ownership. We think this is a winning combination.

Training
Surveys indicate that our satisfied customers are the result of several things: prompt answering of the telephone (usually by a live person), friendly, knowledgeable Customer Service Representatives, quick, accurate shipment of products ordered, a user-friendly web site, and unbelievably courteous and prompt resolutions to problems which do occasionally arise. These things do not happen without commitment and constant training. We have both! CSR's receive about one month's training in the medical aspects of allergy, asthma and sinus problems along with product training before they are ever allowed to consult with a patient. Then they receive regular supplemental training throughout their employment. Our warehouse associates are trained in products so that the right item gets in the right box. The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, along with other material, is a regular part of our Training Manager's reading and we make every effort to keep all of our associates up to date on what's happening in the allergy world. We believe we have the best-trained employees in the business.

Fulfillment/Shipping
With a large assortment of inventory in a temperature and humidity controlled warehouse space, National Allergy is committed to serving our customers with excellence. We very seldom have a back ordered item and most weekday orders received by 1:00PM Eastern Time are shipped that same day. How do we do it? Commitment on the part of our owner associates who fulfill our orders. They truly treat each order just as they would if they were the one to be receiving the package. Again, our customer surveys indicate that the order fulfillment team's commitment pays off.


Patient Product Flyers - Asthma/Allergy Relief Products Physicians Know Us By Our Product Flyers, Patients Trust Us For Our Caring Service.
National Allergy's patient product guide has become extremely well known and is widely used by allergy, asthma, and sinus physicians nationwide. Our product guide is still how doctors know us best, but patients know us for our personal, caring service and refreshingly complete satisfaction.

And we are still working to earn your trust, one satisfied patient at a time. We are pleased to have gained the trust of so many doctors, and we believe we will continue to find ways to improve our products and services. That's why the future is exciting to all of us who now have a personal ownership in this growing company and why we will never stop looking for ways to serve allergy, asthma and sinusitis patients with excellence.
