Tasco

Tasco (also known as Tasco Worldwide) is one of the major international distributors of telescopes. The company's products mainly target telescope buyers that are amateur astronomers, but has grown to manufacture a large assortment of optical equipment, including terrestrial spotting scopes, microscopes, binoculars, telescopic sights, and other rifle accessories. Tasco products are sold through a variety of specialty outlets, catalogues, and online vendors.

Tasco, based in Miramar, Florida, is a subsidiary of Tasco Holdings, Inc. (THII) and was founded in 1954 by George Rosenfield as the Tanross Supply Company, a distributor of fishing tackle and hardware. The name was later shortened to Tasco as inventory expanded to include binoculars and eyepieces.
