We've got a synthetic ice in the back of the warehouse for those that need a mid-day pick-me-up and we've an company-wide skate on Tuesday mornings at our local ice rink. We fiddle with hockey sticks while on the phone with customers and fumble around with trying different tape jobs when we're feeling fidgety. Fortunately for us, we get the opportunity to translate a lot of that culture into our work.

After some time, a ton of research, and even more development, Howies Hockey Tape was born. Howies was formed on the values of quality - utilizing only the highest quality materials and pairing that with unmatched customer service that focused on always being helpful and prompt. The very first headquarters was out of his parents' garage and HQ2 transitioned into the basement of his dad's photography studio in downtown Grand Rapids.
