Gulf Fastener

Our Company History

Gulf Fastener, Inc. was founded in 2004 by George Montgomery, his son Mike, and daughter-in-law Carrie. Built from the ground up, Gulf Fastener was established with a singular focus on meeting the demanding requirements of the US Navy and Coast Guard shipbuilding industry. With decades of experience in the fastener business, the Montgomery family recognized the critical importance of providing high-quality products to ensure the smooth operation of our nation's vital naval infrastructure.

Their vision was simple: to become a trusted partner for shipyards, consistently delivering top-tier fasteners, hardware, and components that met the stringent standards of the US military. Their commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction quickly gained recognition, propelling Gulf Fastener's growth year after year.

Now, headquartered in Mobile, Alabama, with a dedicated sales office in Virginia, Gulf Fastener boasts a team that accumulated over 200 years of collective experience in the fastener industry. This vast knowledge base, coupled with a steadfast dedication to quality, allows Gulf Fastener to effectively serve its customers with a comprehensive understanding of their unique needs.
