About Supply Tie
Why Supply Tie exists, and who's behind it.
Tyler Schmitt
Owner, Supply Tie
Supply Tie was founded in 2024 to do one thing well: get industrial and facility supplies to the people who need them, at a fair price, without the runaround.
Before starting Supply Tie, I spent 10 years working in factories — 5 of them in facility and industrial maintenance, and 5 as a finishing engineer. The 7 years after that were spent in industrial sales, chasing down the right supplier relationships and opportunities that eventually led to building this business. That background is the whole point of Supply Tie. I've been the guy on the floor who needed the part to work the first time, the engineer who had to spec it correctly, and the salesperson who had to track it down — and I know how much money gets wasted on supplies that are overpriced, over-ordered, or just wrong for the job.
Finding real cost savings has always been the part of the work I care about most, whether it was for the plants I used to keep running or for the customers I work with now. That's still what drives how Supply Tie is run: straightforward pricing, no filler, and gear that's actually right for the application.
Outside of work, I'm a father of four with a wonderful wife who puts up with all of it. Family is a big part of why I do this the way I do — built to last, not to cut corners.
If you have a question about a product, a bulk order, or just want to talk through what you actually need, reach out. That's still my favorite part of the job.

How Orders Ship
Orders ship direct from the supplier warehouse nearest you. If your cart has products from more than one supplier, they arrive as separate shipments, each with its own tracking number. Most items ship in 1–3 business days; special-order and drop-ship items vary by vendor. Pallet and other heavy orders go LTL freight, and we quote the freight before we ship. Free-shipping minimums vary by brand. If you're nearby, ask about local delivery: Jasper, Huntingburg & Ferdinand · Evansville · Louisville. Shipping & returns
Quotes and Bulk Orders
Catalog pricing comes from supplier data. For anything that depends on volume or freight, we confirm the price, minimum order quantity and lead time on a quote before you order. That quote is the number we stand behind. Quote requests are answered within one business day. Request a quote
Free VMI Program
