Since 2015, Tough Dog Suspension has been collaborating with Tough Gear Trading. The partnership originated when TGT's founder, Gary Turner, began working with John Agostino, the founder of Tough Dog. This friendship dates back some 15 years, highlighting the strong bond between the two companies.
Gary Turner and his partners, including Hennie Fourie, boast extensive military backgrounds, bringing a wealth of knowledge, experience, and connections in the armoured vehicles and security sectors. With Hennie's experience in working with companies that construct armoured vehicles, he understands what it takes to produce a reliable product using top-quality and dependable brands.
Tough Dog acknowledges the expertise that TGT contributes to their export markets, especially in the military and armoured vehicle segments. Furthermore, both Gary and Hennie have over 28 years of experience in the 4x4 industry, making them well-versed in international markets.
With a common vision for the future, both companies have capitalized on their collective experience and expertise to establish thriving partnerships on multiple projects. Our excitement for the future is amplified as we anticipate the continued expansion of our international presence, hand in hand with TGT.
