ABOUT ROTBLOTT'S
History.
In 1917 a man by the name of Israel Rotblott
started a scrap metal business. By horse and carriage, Israel
would make pick-ups around the streets of Toronto. His success
in business
allowed him to take over some land on what is now known as McCaul
Street. From there he grew a flourishing business and passed on the opportunity
to his sons Murray and Mike Rotblott. In the 1950s, they decided to move to Bathurst and Front
Streets. Today, Israel's grandson Howard still operates Rotblott & Sons
scrap metal yard and machinery.
Howard's son Andrew and
brother Bradley started the discount warehouse back in 1990, on the same
Bathurst & Front property. Through four generations of Rotblotts one of the most encouraging
tributes to the business is the commitment to the same quality,
service, and hard
work that Israel put forth. All of our customers can continue to
expect the same high quality service that our historic family operated
business was built on.
Today.
Howard Rotblott now solely runs Rotblott & Sons Ltd. Machinery,
Scrap Metal, and Plant Dismantling. His son Andrew presides over
Rotblott's
Discount Warehouse Inc., where Toronto finds the very best in amazing prices
and quality goods.
Andrew’s
operation specializes in buying and selling overstocks, clearance merchandise,
surplus goods, hardware, and housewares. Most recently included in
the Rotblott's family business is the film expendables department, specializing
in all of the production supplies for set dressers, production designers,
and production assistants.
Rotblott's has hardware, specialty items and tons of other neat stuff.
It’s a slice of Toronto history, and fun too.
Tomorrow.
Rotblott's will continue to provide excellent service for artists, tradesmen,
film types, carpenters, electricians, painters, and plumbers. We
will continue to expand the products and services offered to meet the ever-growing
requirements of our customers. The future is bright
at Rotblott's. See you soon!
