As part of the transition, EmergencyKits.com will continue to operate under its existing name and maintain its current headquarters in Simi Valley, California. Customers can expect the same commitment to quality, reliability, and service that has been the company’s hallmark, with new initiatives planned to further enhance the shopping experience. The acquisition marks another step forward for EmergencyKits.com as it meets the evolving needs of individuals, families, and organizations preparing for a variety of situations.
