SRS Distribution expands in Pennsylvania

7/23/2018
SRS Distribution has acquired the wholesale division of Interstate Building Materials.

Founded in 1938, Interstate operates both a wholesale distribution operation and a vinyl and composite window and door manufacturing operation in Pittston, Pa.

As part of the transaction, SRS has acquired Interstate’s wholesale distribution operation, which carries a full line of exterior building products including residential roofing, vinyl siding, windows & doors, kitchen cabinets, and other complementary products. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Going forward, Interstate will operate as Interstate Window & Door Company and plans to expand its manufacturing operation under the continued ownership of the Pupa Family.  The entire sales & operations team of Interstate’s wholesale distribution operation will stay with SRS.

SRS also plans to transition Interstate’s operating name to Kohl Building Products, which already operates nearby locations in Stroudsburg and Bloomsburg.

“We have been exploring opportunities in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton market to extend the reach of the Kohl Building Products platform we acquired last year,” said Dan Tinker, president and CEO of SRS Distribution. “Partnering with the Interstate team will best position our sales and delivery capabilities in the region to provide the highest level of customer service. We look forward to building on the legacy of the Interstate business in the coming years and remaining an important contributor to the local Pittston community.”

Joseph Pupa, III, president of Interstate, said, “The resources that SRS brings to bear will strengthen the company’s ability to be a leader in our market.  The combination of these strategic resources and added capital will ensure that our customers continue to receive the very best products and services necessary for success in today’s competitive market.”

Last month SRS Distribution opened 3 new greenfield locations in Tempe, Ariz.; Traverse City, Mich.; and Newport News, Virginia. Since the start of 2018, SRS has opened 12 new locations.

Based in McKinney, Texas, SRS Distribution operates 225 locations under 23 brands in 42 states.
