ABOUT TWO WAY DIRECT

Our mission….

"To view our business through the eyes of our customers and fulfill their expectations by offering quality products and services in a fun and innovative environment; to provide a workplace where every compatriot has the opportunity to realize their potential."

Just as technology was increasingly becoming foreign and impersonal, Two Way Direct came on the scene as a family-owned company with a passionate enthusiasm to build something different. Brandon Ocampo started Two Way Direct in a small apartment in 2006, with no customers, no contacts, no money, and no product line. Two Way Direct has achieved considerable success growing the company to serve over 7,000 customers using a direct, straightforward approach that cuts through the hype and smoke that can sometimes surround advancements in technology. Ocampo wanted to offer customers a respectful experience; to be the source of quality radio products, the best prices, and technological service that is more like working with friends and family than with a bland corporation's glossy sales pitch. With an honest, almost old-fashioned work ethic that primarily consisted of "pounding the pavement" with a reliable product and personable customer care, he grew the company from the ground up to where it is today: a thriving corporation that maintains a dynamic full time staff and 7,200 square foot warehouse. 

We'll sell you the best radios, at the best price, with the best service.

As a Motorola, Vertex, Icom and Radio Dispatch award-winning distributor known for our superior technical and sales expertise, Two Way Direct proudly offers our line of durable and reliable radio products and accessories with faster service and better prices than our competitors.
