About Us
Augusta Tool Suppliers was founded in 1999 by Vivian George who has grown the business from humble beginnings in a small warehouse in Boksburg to where it is today.
Augusta Tool Suppliers started out as a tool wholesaler selling a full range of quality hand tools. After a few years, ATS saw a gap in the market and started importing a range of tools to complement the power tool market. Our main line was high quality drill bits.
The company grew from strength to strength becoming a major supplier of quality drill bits covering HSS, Masonry and an SDS range.
The products were so good in both quality terms and in price that very soon some of Augusta’s biggest clients asked if they might create their own brands building on Augusta’s expertise in selecting the best factories for supply. This development was a turning point for Augusta and they also created their own brand-Javelin- at the same time.
