Ambassador Supply acquires metal-building specialist
Ambassador Supply of Fort Wayne, Indiana, has acquired Straight Line Metal Buildings, a Brookshire, Texas-based company that manufactures and installs pre-engineered metal buildings.
Ambassador Supply CEO Brad Crawford described the combination as a perfect fit.
“We’re honored to welcome the Straight Line Metal Buildings team to the Ambassador Supply family. Their legacy of innovation and excellence, coupled with our shared values and commitment to building better futures for the communities we serve, makes this acquisition a perfect match. We’re grateful to Steven Poorman and the Straight Line Metal Buildings team for their trust in us.”
The deal comes shortly after Ambassador’s April acquisition of Hitek Truss.
Straight Line Metal Buildings offers general purpose and pre-engineered metal buildings, steel homes, mini-storage buildings, modular offices, components, and more. Because of their faster construction, unmatched strength and versatility, and reduced cost, steel buildings offer an attractive alternative to traditional wood buildings.
“Joining forces with Ambassador Supply will allow us to expand our capabilities and further develop the most advanced information, engineering, manufacturing and delivery systems available – all while providing the same level of service to our partners,” said Straight Line Metal Buildings President Steven Poorman.
With the addition of Straight Line Metal Buildings, the Ambassador Supply portfolio has grown to 13 design and building-focused companies located throughout the United States. Ambassador Supply says it continues to expand through strategic investments in the residential and commercial construction; lumber and building materials; development, manufacturing, and distribution; and building technology industries.
