Massachusetts-based distributor F.W. Webb Company earlier this month announced the acquisition of two Southeast Pennsylvania plumbing suppliers and the opening of a new location in eastern New Jersey.
The company added Rising Sun Plumbing Supply in Philadelphia and Steinberg Plumbing Supply in suburban Elkins Park. Webb officials said that both companies have provided plumbing, heating and industrial supplies across the Philadelphia metro area for decades.
The new locations will add to Webb’s existing Pennsylvania operations in Allentown and Aston. Former Steinberg owner Ed Preston will serve as manager of the Philadelphia location.
"Greater Philadelphia is one of the largest markets in the Northeast," Webb COO Bob Mucciarone said in the announcement. "We are excited to offer our wide array of products and exemplary service to our expanded customer base."
