MORSCO, a Fort Worth, TX-based distributor of commercial and residential plumbing, heating and cooling equipment, and pipe, valves and fittings, has acquired plumbing supply distributor Murray Supply Company, Winston-Salem, NC.
The acquired locations will continue to operate as Murray Supply Company, a MORSCO Company.
Murray Supply operates four plumbing branches (Charlotte, Hickory, Winston-Salem and Raleigh, NC), three MRO branches (Charlotte and Raleigh, NC, and Richmond, VA) and one industrial PVF branch in Winston-Salem.
“Bringing Murray Supply into the MORSCO family is a significant milestone in the growth of our company as it is the first acquisition we have made in the attractive Southeast region," Chip Hornsby, CEO of MORSCO, said. "MORSCO has historically focused on building its business in the Southwest, specifically Texas. We are now ready to begin to move eeast, and we are confident that Murray Supply provides an excellent base to begin our Eastward expansion.”
