GW Murphy grows through both greenfield expansion and acquisitions. We invest in people, local relationships, systems and operating support so new locations and acquired businesses can build on what already works.
GW Murphy grows by entering markets where contractors and manufacturers need a strong independent distributor. We build local teams and relationships, invest in facilities, fleet, inventory and operational support, and develop the manufacturer and vendor relationships that make each new market successful.
We do not grow for growth's sake. Every expansion decision is evaluated against our ability to serve customers well, develop people and operate with the same discipline that has built our existing businesses over nearly five decades.
Connect With Our TeamWe identify markets where contractor demand supports a new branch and build from the ground up — establishing local relationships, hiring local people and applying our shared operational platform to create a business that serves the community well.
