The original idea behind GrabWell Enterprises was hatched in the
lunch room of Abbotsford Senior Secondary school in 1972.
Possibly due to an over abundance of male testosterone or lack of
sexual release (or both), or even too much time on our hands,
work on GrabWell Enterprises was begun. Product lines were selected,
development staff were hired, corporate structure was conceived and
members of the board were appointed.
|
|
From its rather auspicious begining, GrabWell Enterprises set out
to become the first mail order catalog to specialize in Home and Garden
appliances and machinery designed entirely in house by our multi-talented
design and development staff. GrabWell Enterprises specialized in one
cylinder 2-cycle gasoline engine powered home and garden appliances.
From the very beginning our development staff were obsessed with
the notion of computer aided design, though personal computing devices
would not be generally available for another ten years.
|
|
Our talented design staff
nevertheless persisted in product design and software development.
GrabWell Enterprises immediately became world renowned for such things as the
Gasoline Powered Bed, the Delux Automatic Gas Powered Toaster, The
Automatic Gasoline Powered Stereo Record Player and the Gasoline Powered
Steam Iron. GrabWell Enterprises also pioneered alternative power
generation equipment, such as the 3-Cylinder Hemi-Head Engine and the
V4-Cylinder Air Cooled Engine.

In 1972 the first catalog was released and GrabWell Enterprises went live,
that first year we enjoyed absolutely no sales.
But not to be defeated, the
design staff continued in their feverous design and development of many
new and creative home products, many of which, were subsequently released
in the following years' catalogs. To this day, more than 25 years later,
GrabWell Enterprises is proud to be in business in spite of having
never sold a single product through it's catalog sales division.
|
|
In 1995, GrabWell Enterprises went global by creating one of the world's
first Internet Online ordering systems. We are proud to continue the
tradition of having not sold a single product.

So, please enjoy our Web Site, let us know what you think, and if you want
to order something, don't bother, as we are nearly always out of stock.
So long, .... and thanks for all the fish.
