After spending almost 15 years working in a local industrial supply store, Rob McDonald was ready for a change spurred by a strong entrepreneurial itch. His first choice was to attempt to purchase the company he was working for. This seemed to be progressing until the current owner of that store had a change of heart, wanting to maintain majority control over the company.
This put Rob in an awkward position as he had already made clear the desire to become an owner and to step back into the “same-old – same old” just did not feel right. Now, during the time leading up to this, Rob was very aware of the possibility that the deal would not work out so he mused about the idea of branching out on his own. One day, when discussing this possibility with his wife, Rob posed the idea that if he ever started his own supply company, he would call it “Skookum Tools”.
The word “Skookum” was very familiar to Rob since it is widely used on the west coast of Canada. A loose translation (from the Chinook language) of the word Skookum would be strong, tough or of very high quality. It is a word Rob heard many times from clients as they expressed their desire for the most “Skookum” {name of tool here} available. So why not just call the company Skookum Tools, indicating he would only carry the best!
