The acquisition allows for geographic expansion into areas of Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas where Ferguson does not currently have a brick-and-mortar location.

Ferguson Industrial (formerly Wolseley) announced the acquisition of AP Supply Co. Since 1960, AP Supply has established itself as a premier distributor of industrial pipe, valves and fittings in the southern United States. Headquartered in Texarkana, AR, the company has two additional locations in El Dorado, AR and Bastrop, LA. All three locations will be joining Ferguson Industrial’s Gulf Coast district. “With this expanded branch network in our Gulf Coast District, we look forward to providing even more PVF products and services to this important market and strategic geographic location,” said Chris Fadden, Ferguson Industrial Gulf Coast director.
The acquisition allows for geographic expansion into areas of Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas where Ferguson does not currently have a brick-and-mortar location. It also allows Ferguson Industrial to offer a larger breadth and depth of industrial products and services to customers in the region.
