Our History
80 Years of Experience
Gades Sales Co., Inc. was founded during the mid-1940s. While vehicles have become more complex and traffic has increased exponentially since then, one thing that hasn’t changed is our commitment to providing quality products and outstanding service after the sale.
For decades, we’ve been providing the most up-to-date, dependable transportation control equipment available for local municipalities, state Departments of Transportation, contractors, turnpike authorities and more.
As a woman owned, veteran managed, small business we recognize the efforts of our team in a variety of ways and one of them is providing time off during the holiday season.
Please schedule deliveries and update your schedules accordingly for each of these time periods.
