Winsupply
The Firm
The businesses it buys are the size a single buyer competes for, which is unusual on this shelf and is the reason this row is worth reading. The purchases below run to eighteen employees, thirty-four employees and seven employees, which is a different population from the sixty-location chains most consolidators announce.
Its model is the other thing to understand before taking the call. It stands over more than six hundred and eighty locally owned wholesale companies rather than a single operating business, and the arrangement is co-ownership, so a seller or an operator can hold a substantial minority stake instead of exiting outright. Its own page pitches that against selling to an investor focused on profit or a corporation dictating from a distance.
It publishes no criteria at all: no size, no geography, no revenue floor, just an acquisition specialist and a telephone number. The trades come from the announcements rather than from the page that invites the call.
What It Buys
Moraine, Ohio. A co-ownership group standing over hundreds of locally owned wholesale companies, which buys small electrical and plumbing supply houses and usually keeps the selling owner running the branch.
Selling to them one day, or watching them as the other bidder? Track them in the Contact Book so the relationship has a next-touch date.
Confirmed Deals
3 deals traced to announcements by Winsupply, 2025 to 2026, newest first. Firms that announce every deal show a fuller run here than firms that report acquisitions as quarterly counts, so read this as the evidence that clears the bar rather than as the firm's whole record.
