Our Story
Tim Thomas had a vision that grew from humble beginnings into a successful global business. After working in the bit industry for 10 years, he founded Bit Brokers International (BBI) in 1988. Starting in a small office with only himself as the employee, Thomas expanded the business significantly. Today, BBI has over 42,000 square feet of office and warehouse space, and sells bits in all 50 states and 87 countries. BBI’s business philosophy prioritizes customer satisfaction and quality, which has led to long-lasting customer relationships.
Who We are

Thomas learned from the mistakes of competitors and maintained high standards for used bits, which contributed to BBI’s success. Thomas credits his handpicked and trained staff for the company’s success and expresses gratitude to loyal customers and vendors for their continued support
