About Belco Vehicle Solutions

Belco was officially established in 2010 by two former Columbia County Sheriff Officers, Tony Belay and Ben Colrud. Together they have a combined 41 years of service in law enforcement. The two came up with the business idea while still serving. Tony & Ben proposed they could build squad cars more efficiently and user friendly using their experience from working on the force. After retiring from the police force they decided to pursue the idea. They began Belco out of Tony's garage with just the two of them. Today they have expanded to a full five bay garage with 16 employees. Belco is a one-stop shop providing equipment installation and graphics. We proudly service police and sheriff departments all across the state.
