Witmer Public Safety Group is one of the nation’s leading multi-channel distributors providing top quality equipment, training, service and support after the sale. We have built our company to fully meet the needs of public safety professionals across the country and around the globe. The explosive growth of Witmer Public Safety Group, Inc. began in 1996 when firefighter Jim Witmer, his brother Greg Witmer and their family launched one of the first online stores specifically for public safety professionals. Before long they changed the name to better reflect their growing list of available products. Today the number of specialized web sites continues to grow along with their ever-expanding gateway to thousands of items from hundreds of manufacturers. Thanks to our loyal customers and very positive relationships with the companies we represent, Witmer Public Safety Group continues to deliver on the company motto of Equipping Heroes™ on a daily basis. Our Professional Sales and Support Teams are dedicated to making your life easier and safer. Our staff is made up of many active or retired firefighters, policemen, EMTs and Paramedics. That’s how we operate…and it’s how we live. We’re colleagues. We’re family. We understand your needs. We know our products. And we’ll never compromise on quality. As always, we’re prepared to meet or exceed your high expectations in every way.
