This week, the company acquired Northport Electrical Supply, a full-line electrical distributor based in Northport, Ala. Earlier this month, the company expanded into the Louisville, Ky., market with a new branch.
The Northport acquisition follows the opening of a Plumbers Wholesale Supply location in Tuscaloosa last year. Northport will continue to operate under its established name.
“This is a win for everyone — our customers, our employees and our supplier partners,” said Lee Cobb, president of the South Division of Park/Wiseway Supply Group. “Joining forces will enable us to continue providing the personal, local service our customers expect while gaining access to expanded product lines, enhanced technology and deeper operational support.”
The new Louisville area branch, located in Jeffersontown, is 24,000 square feet and will serve electrical and plumbing contractors, builders, excavators and retail customers across the metro and surrounding counties.
“Our team is dedicated to being a trusted partner for our customers, offering the products, services and support they need to complete their projects with ease and on budget,” said Bob Bender, Wiseway Supply’s president. “With our in-stock inventory and swift delivery options, we aim to provide an unmatched level of convenience and reliability to the region.”
Wiseway operates 18 supply locations and six showrooms across the Midwest and Southeast.
