One Distribution Partner for Market Growth and Complex Inventory Challenges.
GW Murphy supports manufacturer and vendor partners through two complementary capabilities. Our operating businesses distribute main-line, first-quality roofing and building products through contractor-facing branches across five states and a two-step wholesale channel serving independent distributors throughout North America. When inventory no longer fits a standard sales path, our S.M.O.O.S.I. solutions provide a disciplined route for Slow-Moving, Obsolete and Off-Spec Inventory.

Multiple Distribution Paths.
GW Murphy combines contractor-facing branch distribution, two-step wholesale, logistics and S.M.O.O.S.I. inventory solutions. This allows manufacturer and vendor partners to pursue standard market growth and address inventory outside the normal channel through one experienced organization.
