Rebar and construction-supply distributor White Cap has acquired Ohio rebar supplier and fabricator B&R Reinforcing Inc, Kallanish has learned.
B&R Reinforcing, based in Columbus, Ohio, carries inventory of rebar from #3 through #18 and specializes in cutting, bending, and fabricating. It provides a wide range of dry and liquid chemicals, wire mesh, and metal and plastic support chairs.
"B&R Reinforcing's strong reputation around rebar fabrication and concrete accessory supplies for customers in the central Ohio market provides an excellent foundation for White Cap to expand our value-added services and one-stop shop across Ohio, so we can continue to serve our customers with excellence," said Alan Sollenberger, Chief Executive of White Cap.
"With White Cap being the premier distributor for construction materials, and B&R Reinforcing being the preferred rebar fabricator in Columbus, our team at B&R Reinforcing has an excellent opportunity for growth and continued success. We are excited to become part of the White Cap family," said Michael Bright, Co-Owner of B&R Reinforcing.
The transaction marks a continuation of a rapid expansion trend for White Cap. Last month, the Atlanta, Georgia-based company acquired Virginia-based Rebar Solutions.
