Floor covering distributor Haines, Glen Burnie, MD, has opened a new supplies center in Orlando, Florida on August 22, 2014. The Wheeler Supplies Center is Haines’ first supplies center location in Florida.

Haines began the new supplies division when it acquired Allied Products in early 2013 and then grew the division when it acquired CMH Space and Ellis Flooring in early 2014. Haines operates 26 Supplies Centers.

CEO Bruce Zwicker said that the company expects addition acquisitions and supplies center openings as part of the company’s operations strategy.

The Wheeler Supplies Center will offer flooring installation tools and supplies to flooring contractors and flooring dealers. The current flooring supplies available to Wheeler floor covering dealers will be expanded and sold by the existing team of Wheeler employees.
