Integrity. Quality. Value. Your aggressive partner for success! This is our slogan and the commitment we make to our customers. We strongly believe in fabricating winning partnerships and working to assure the success of our customers. This has been our goal since we began business in 1956.
The seed that grew into Vista Industrial Products, Inc. was sown in 1956 in a large garage in Vista, California by Kurt Horst Ackermann. Before Kurt began his manufacturing career, he was an entrepreneur in several diverse industries including photo finishing in 1950, selling backpack crop dusters, and even egg ranching! Kurt ran in the first mayoral election for the City of Vista. His manufacturing career got off to a rocky start when his first and second companies were sold, respectively. Nevertheless, in 1967 Kurt formed Vista Industrial Products and never looked back. By the end of the sixties, VIP and the Ackermann family were producing a range of products, from vending machines to exercise equipment to kitchen accessories and even countertop water softeners. By the time VIP was incorporated in 1975, the company had already created an impressive resume by working with well-established companies and manufacturing a wide range of products, including such notable customers as General Atomics and Hughes Aircraft Company. In 1981, VIP began aggressively adopting emerging automation technology by purchasing the first CNC turret punch in San Diego County and an autoloader in 1986.
VIP has continued to grow and expand ever since, and in 1994 the company moved from Kurt H.'s garage to a new 50,000 square foot facility.
During the Dot Com boom, VIP expanded more rapidly than ever, and in 2000 moved a few blocks down the street to the current 153,000 square foot facility. Our continuing commitment to quality led us to become ISO 9000 certified in 2004; a certification which we maintain to the present day. We have a full-fledged machine shop, paint shop, and plating shop in-house allowing us to provide a complete fabrication solution to our customers. Our current workforce consists of approximately 180 employees with two shifts per day. VIP has proven to be a company of diverse nature throughout the years. The main industries that we cater to best include the medical, bio-tech, defense, high technology, aerospace, commercial, and retail sectors. Contributions to these industries include the original design development for the Pyxis product line and becoming an approved supplier for Cardinal Health, Overland Data, and OnCore to only name a few. Vista Industrial has received multiple awards on the Pyxis product line and awarded “Best in Class: Mechanical” in 2004.
Vista found the perfect size building to accommodate our capabilities and customer needs. Our efficiency has increased due to our facility layout and facility resources, making this facility our perfect fit! Vista Industrial Products was acquired by TCMG in December 2023. This acquisition is a continuation of TCMG’s mandate to become one of the leading American suppliers of turn-key, precision contract manufacturing, fabrication, and assembly services.
The most unique part about our facility is not just its large size, but the facility was designed to VIP's custom specifications for maximum efficiency and production. Thus emphasizing quality and on time delivery for our customers. Although we are large in size and have been around for nearly 70 years, we still maintain a small shop mentality.
