History
On April 1, 1972, GT Distributors opened its doors. Bill Orr, our founder, is still active in the company. The 'GT' name came from the fact that our original location was one block from the Georgia and Tennessee state line. In our current location in Rossville, our north property line is the state line. Now that we have a store in Texas, we like to think that GT means Georgia and Texas. Our Georgia location now has 14 employees, three of which are road representatives. The Rossville store has the largest full line public safety showroom in the Southeast. In February 1985 we opened our Texas store with two employees, Jim Orr and Peter Hernandez. Both are still serving customers. In 25 years our Texas location has grown from 2 employees to just over 65. Of these, five are full time road representatives. In 2003 we occupied a 31,000 sq foot building located at 2545 Brockton drive. It now is the largest showroom in Texas and the five neighboring states.
