Eastern Industrial Supplies (EISI), which is a wholesale distributor of pipe, valves, fittings and industrial supplies, has announced that it has acquired M&R Pipe and Supply, which is a PVF distributor based out of Birmingham, Alabama.
M & R will consolidate with Eastern’s existing Birmingham operation to strengthen Eastern’s footprint in Birmingham and the Southeast.
“This acquisition is in line with our strategic efforts to strengthen our base of business, reinforce customer support, and improve operational efficiencies,” said Kip Miller, President/CEO of Eastern.
“We are all excited to be a part of the Eastern family and feel assured that our joining with Eastern will allow us to make positive changes for ourselves, as well as our customers and vendors,” added M & R President Mike Hughes. “Joining Eastern was the right fit for us, both from a cultural and business stand point. Our core values, beliefs and work ethics are very much the same. It enables us to provide improved IT services, more competitive pricing, and will add depth to our organization.”
