Jim Watson - CEO & Founder
Hey guys, my name is Jim Watson AKA "Joe Welder" founder of Arc-Zone.com, Inc.
My motorsports background drove me to learn and develop design, fabrication and machining skills. Specialized skills and attention to details are key to wining in racing. Those valuable skills also lead me to a job as the Director of Manufacturing for Weldcraft Products one of the finest welding equipment companies in the world. . . I had the opportunity to work with a great team and we developed many of the most popular TIG torches and accessories used today.
I was 19 years old when I set up my first race car fabrication shop in my parents garage. I quickly learned that the quality tools I wanted were not available from local suppliers. That was the spark to start Arc-Zone.com! I dedicated myself to learning about how to start and run a successful company, and applied what I learned to my career building welding equipment for a leading company.
When I resigned and took the step to build my own company, I thought the internet was a great way to connect with customers around the world and learn what they needed, and how to make quality tools easier to get. So, in June 1998 with a 386 computer, dial-up internet connection, cordless phone and a considerable portion of my garage, I launched Arc-Zone.com® the first e-commerce company to sell Pro welding and metal working tools and equipment online.
The goal was clear: Build the Best Welding Supply Company In The World. Deliver high-performance welding accessory products, services and solutions to metal fabricators, and wow them with excellent customer service.
By focusing on continuous improvement Arc-Zone has grown year after year since our 1998 launch. Arc-Zone has created a worldwide following of loyal customers by focusing on customer service. Our team is dedicated to adding value to the trades, and giving back to the industry we love.
