As in all of Richard Griots adventures, he always has a special flare when he does a project.
Here is the employee break room and where they hold there get togethers.

I really wanted to try and get one of these bar stools in my carry on but would not fit!

I bet the employees have taken a couple naps in these chairs!

I have to personally thank all of the guys at Griot's for taking time out of their busy schedules to spend the whole day with us. They have an awesome facility and a great staff working with them. I hear they might be doing a show this summer too, if so you should really stop by and see them if you are in the area.
Thank you again guys, Rob, Arnie and Allan were absolutely great for taking the time to show us around! :grouphug:
 
Regardless of how many times I see pictures of Mr. Griots faclility I am always impressed....

Glad to see Max let you out of the office!!!
 
I'm just glad that Meghan and Jason had a good time touring the Griot's facility and made it back safe. Jason told me about the storms that went through the area!
 
Sweet facility! Looks like you had a great time! Glad you made it back safe and sound!
 
LOL, they are right down the road from me and i didn't even know it!! Road trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1:props:
 
Hey I live in Indy, I'll have to look them up. If they have a show I'll be there, plus if my polisher ever has issues I know where to bring it. Great photos.
 
Thank you Meghan and Jason! Love the pictures. They sure do have a lot of room!

Yes after seeing their break room I realized we did not need to get a hotel room, you could have comfortably stayed in there!
 
You don't suppose they'd mind if I "borrowed" one of those comfy looking chairs, do you?
 
Quite the joint! I had no idea that Griot's was that big of an operation.
 
The place was a soft drink bottling plant that they renovated.

Actually that building they are in was built by Griots if I remember correctly, they started plans in 2002 and in 2004 moved in, but thats according to my memory! :o

This is JUST thier Indiana facility where they do manufacturing and shipping. Corporate offices are in the state of Washington.
 
WOW - AWESOME POST! That has to be one of the cleanest places I've ever seen. I have always wondered... if you work at a massive detail supply warehouse, such as the employees here at Griot's or even the staff at Auto Geek, and you have a limitless supply to high quality products - are all the cars in the parking lot kept in brilliant condition (or since it's a job, does it detract fromt their overall passion, energy, and interest in the endeavor)? Thanks for the cool pictures :)
