  • IMPORTANT MESSAGE REGARDING OUR PRODUCTS

    read until The End.

    Amistad Grill Company was Born on February 2021. our orignal idea was to offer customers Portable & heavy duty Portable Grills.  

    over the past 18 years we have operated a successful Contract manufacturing Business that has had success on different types of industries, from Oil & Gas fortune 500 companies to small Owned & operated businesses in Texas and other States.

    our first Experience & opportunity with outdoor products dates back to 2009 when HEB stores approached us and gave us an opportunity to explore that niche.

    in 2014 we created a solid business relationship with Bucees and began supplying outdoor products - Heavy duty Firepits - 

    in 2018 we had to refocus our attention on our main Structural Fabrication Division and decided to have all of our efforts focused on that area.

    2020 brought tremendous challenges to our customers and we began looking for ways to keep all of our employees busy at all times.  i originally began exploring the sourcing of products to retailers with little to no luck due to the times we were experiencing.  i Finally made a critical decision and started to think about Directly selling to consumers.  A BIG CHALLENGE.

    after researching i found Shopify and developed along some of our employees a series of portable, heavy duty grills.  this with the idea in mind to sustain some jobs that otherwise would have been lost.

     

    in early June i Became aware of certain needs within the Smokless fire pit owners community and designed Our First Fire Pit Accessory that was introduced to the market on June 11 2021 right at the peak of the Covid Pandemic.  

    long story short and forward to January 2023 and almost 4,000 accessories sold all i can is WOW !!   it has been challenging to say the least For Many Reasons.

    AND FOR THIS WE ARE THANKFUL FOR EACH ONE OF THE CUSTOMERS THAT HAS TRUSTED US WITH AND ORDER AND THEIR PATIENCE.

     

    THE IMPORTANT MESSAGES IS: 

    I HAVE MADE THE DECISION TO TEMPORARILY STOP OFFERING MOST OF OUR ACCESSORIES FOR 2 MAIN REASONS

    1.- HAVE PRODUCT IN STOCK AT ALL TIMES - IF NOT DON'T SELL IT

    2.- CONTINUE HAVING FUN CREATING MORE INGENIOUS DESIGNS.

     

    I WILL ALSO REFOCUS SOME OF MY ATTENTION TO THE BUSINESS AND CHALLENGE THOSE INVOLVED IN IT.

     

    **** NEW AND EXISTING PRODUCTS WILL BE BACK ON FEB 28TH 2023

    best regards

    Ernesto V

    Current Lead Times & Updates

    Amistad grill company was Born on April 2021 This last six months have been an interesting and exciting time for our company.

    The demand for our products has been amazing and it has created challenges that have been addressed and processes that have been improved, we are extremely humbled by the support from all of our customers and the choice to seek out our products.

    We understand that the newly expanded lead times are not exactly ideal, and understandably caused frustration among our customers.

    We have fought through the majority of the supply chain issues and continue to work weekly to reduce lead-times.

    We are working hard developing new suppliers as well as strengthening partnerships with our current ones. And although supplier lead times continue being an issue we are moving as fast as possible and trying to adjust.

    we are highly focused on 2022 and beyond with more exciting products being added to our lineup.

     

    We truly and sincerely appreciate everyone’s support and patience as we work to keep up with demand. We are thankful for all of our hardworking staff members, our families, friends, and all of the people along the way that have helped made our brand what it is today.
