Winsupply Inc., one of the nation’s largest wholesale  distributors, has acquired Industrial Sales Co. 

Industrial Sales, located in Olathe, Kansas, specializes in landscape and utility wholesale  distribution throughout the Midwest. Its products include those for landscape, water, gas,  telecommunications, geothermal, and equipment. 

Founded in 1973, Industrial Sales began as a provider of drainage pipes and fittings for  residential and commercial contractors in Greater Kansas City. Over time, additional product  lines were added, including PVC pipes and fittings, water and sewer, accessories for the gas  distribution industry, and irrigation equipment. 

“Industrial Sales has been presented with an exceptional opportunity to join the Winsupply  organization that I passionately believe represents their commitment to continuing the legacy of  Industrial Sales,” said Jake Cooper, President, Industrial Sales. 

Industrial Sales follows a specialized “Service Plus” model for its sales and support staff in two  main divisions – Utility Division and Landscape Division. 

“The distribution and company structure of Winsupply will provide an opportunity to not only  sustain both the Landscape and Utility Divisions, but will be advantageous for all who support  the new company,” Cooper said. “This objective has been met by their ability to develop and  manage an extremely successful family of companies and their continued accomplishments in  growth and longevity within the distribution industry.” 

The company also has a second location in Omaha, Nebraska. 

“Our business models aligned in several areas, including a strong customer focus backed by a  team of creative, problem solvers with an entrepreneurial mindset,” said Jeff Dice, President,  Winsupply Inc. “Winsupply continues to be acquisitive, both strategic and opportunistic, with a  focus on creating entrepreneurs.” 

This is Winsupply’s first acquisition of this year. It complements the company’s decades-long  growth strategy, which includes both strategic acquisitions as well as starting new Local  Companies. Since the beginning of 2024, Winsupply has added over 20 new Local Companies  to its footprint.
