Dakota Supply Group (DSG), Fargo, North Dakota, on Tuesday announced plans to open a new branch in Great Falls, Montana, in early fall.

DSG has been serving customers in the Great Falls market from its other Montana locations, but having a local presence is another step in the company’s overall effort to grow what it considers an important market.

“This is a major step forward for us servicing customers in the Great Falls market, and definitely puts us in a position to provide greater service locally by now having a physical presence,” said Roy Eskro, Montana general manager. “We’ve really enjoyed the customer relationships we’ve built in Great Falls, but now to be there alongside them with our new home will be fantastic.  I am definitely excited to see how our team and this local facility will help set a higher customer service standard throughout Great Falls.”

DSG is a 100% employee-owned electrical, plumbing and HVACR distributor with nearly 700 employee owners in 33 locations and five states. The new facility’s address will be 1101 15th Street North.
