What Able 2 Products Company does

Able 2 Products Company is a privately held U.S. manufacturer of emergency-vehicle lighting and warning systems, founded in 1972 in Cassville, Missouri, and operating under the SHO-ME brand. The company produces over 300 SKUs spanning LED light bars (SHO-OFF, Luminator, Mini, Low-Profile Stretch), perimeter lights (MEGA series, ESL X-TRA, Slim Lights, Micro-Lites, PAR 36, LightStorm warning sticks), arrow boards (LED, incandescent, LumenX variants), sirens, speakers, beacons, switches, flashers, scene/work lights, and By-The-Inch customizable LED strips, plus legacy halogen and incandescent products.

The business model is hardware-direct manufacturing and distribution: products are sold B2B and to government buyers worldwide from a single Cassville facility using a phone- and FAX-based direct sales channel with guaranteed live-representative service, no voicemail, and quote-based pricing. Customer segments are emergency services (police, fire, EMS), transportation and construction (arrow boards, work-zone lighting), and law enforcement, served under sub-brands including SHO-ME, SHO-OFF, LumenX, LightStorm, FlashPoint, Quadisc, MEGA, Chameleon, ESL X-TRA, and Mighty Light. Revenue, headcount trend, and ownership details beyond the static 100+ employee figure and President Jerry Watley's leadership are not publicly disclosed; there is no e-commerce, no disclosed institutional ownership, and no evidence of outside capital, partnerships, or M&A activity.

Direct peers

• Whelen Engineering: Whelen Engineering is the largest US manufacturer of emergency vehicle warning lights, sirens, and light bars, directly competing with SHO-ME across light bars, perimeter lights, sirens, and arrow boards for police/fire/EMS fleets.
• SoundOff Signal: SoundOff Signal manufactures LED warning lights, light bars, and in-vehicle warning systems targeting the same police, fire, EMS, and utility fleets as SHO-ME, with comparable product breadth in light bars and perimeter lighting.
• Grote Industries: Grote Industries manufactures vehicle lighting and visibility systems including emergency, work, and warning lighting for commercial and emergency vehicles, with overlapping product categories (LED light bars, beacons, marker lights) targeting similar fleet customers.
• Code 3 (a Public Safety Equipment brand): Code 3 designs and manufactures emergency warning lights and sirens for law enforcement, fire, and EMS, offering light bars, sirens, and speakers that directly compete with SHO-ME's core product lines.
• North American Signal Company: North American Signal manufactures rotating, flashing, and LED warning lights plus sirens for emergency, utility, and construction vehicles - a direct niche competitor with overlapping beacons and strobes comparable to SHO-ME's perimeter warning portfolio.

Broad incumbents

• ECCO Safety Group: ECCO (now part of a larger safety group) produces commercial vehicle lighting, beacons, and warning lights serving fleets, construction, and emergency markets - directly competing with SHO-ME on beacons and perimeter warning lights while operating more broadly across commercial vehicle safety.
• Federal Signal Corporation: Federal Signal is a broad incumbent in public-safety equipment with lighting/siren product lines (Code 3, Whelen competitor) plus a wider portfolio of warning systems, sweepers, and industrial signaling. It competes with SHO-ME in the public-safety lighting segment while operating across adjacent safety categories.

Regional players

• J.W. Speaker Corporation: J.W. Speaker specializes in LED vehicle lighting for on-road, off-road, and industrial applications, with overlap in emergency-vehicle headlights and warning fixtures, primarily serving OEM channels rather than the aftermarket fleet channel SHO-ME targets.

Emerging players

• Tomar Electronics: Tomar Electronics produces strobe and LED warning lights, sirens, and arrow boards for emergency and industrial vehicles, with narrower scope than SHO-ME but direct overlap in strobes and warning lights for DOT/utility markets.
• Star/Signal Vehicle Products: Signal Vehicle Products (formerly Star Headlight & Lantern) makes LED light bars, beacons, and sirens for police, fire, EMS, and tow vehicles - directly comparable as a niche emergency-vehicle lighting competitor to SHO-ME.
