SIX ROBBLEES’ INC.
answers by Andy Robblee
WHY DID YOU START THE BUSINESS?
The business was founded in Tacoma, Wash., in 1913 by J.A. Robblee (eldest of 12 children). Along with two brothers, they performed a variety of jobs including sheet metal, locksmith and bicycle repair. When J.A. passed away in 1930, the business passed to the six brothers employed at the time and was renamed Six Robblees’. My grandfather was one of the six and expanded the company to three branches. My father, J. David, succeeded him and expanded the company to 20 branches
