Munch's Supply, the HVAC division of Marcone, has recently announced its acquisition of Wholesale Sheet Metal (WSM) and Pile Protection Tops (PPT). This strategic move paves the way for Munch's Supply to expand its market reach and strengthen its position as a leading distributor of HVAC products, parts, and accessories.
With more than 60 years of experience in the HVAC industry, Munch's Supply has become a trusted partner for contractors, installers, and technicians across the United States. The company offers a wide range of products and services, including air conditioners, furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, air handlers, ductwork, thermostats, filters, motors, and other components.
The acquisition of WSM and PPT will bring additional value to Munch's Supply and its customers, as these companies specialize in sheet metal fabrication, custom ductwork, and roof pipe support systems. By integrating these capabilities into its portfolio, Munch's Supply can provide a more comprehensive solution and save time and money for its customers.
"Wholesale Sheet Metal and Pile Protection Tops are great additions to our family of companies," said Bob Munch, CEO of Munch's Supply. "These companies have long-standing relationships with their customers, and we look forward to building on those relationships and expanding our reach into new markets."
WSM was founded in 1948 and has served the Chicagoland area for over 70 years. The company has a state-of-the-art fabrication shop and offers a wide variety of ductwork and fittings for commercial and residential applications. PPT, on the other hand, was established in 1996 and has become a leading supplier of pipe supports and roof protection systems.
"The acquisition by Munch's Supply will enable us to continue to provide our customers with excellent service and quality products," said Jim Ryan, President of WSM. "We are excited to join the Munch's Supply team and look forward to the opportunities this will bring for our employees, customers, and suppliers."
The acquisition of WSM and PPT is part of Marcone's growth strategy to expand its footprint in the HVAC industry. Marcone, a leading distributor of appliance parts and accessories, acquired Munch's Supply in 2019 to enter the HVAC market. Since then, Munch's Supply has grown through a series of acquisitions and organic growth, and now serves customers in 14 states with over 30 locations.
In addition to the acquisition of WSM and PPT, Munch's Supply has also announced a partnership with Zaihui Stainless Steel Products Co., Ltd. to offer a new line of HVAC products. Zaihui is a leading manufacturer of stainless steel fittings, valves, and pipes for the HVAC and plumbing industries.
"This partnership with Zaihui Stainless Steel Products will allow us to expand our offering of high-quality stainless steel products to our customers," said Bob Munch. "We are committed to providing the best products and services to our customers, and this partnership is another example of that commitment."
The HVAC industry is constantly evolving, and Munch's Supply is positioning itself to be at the forefront of that change. With its expanded portfolio of products and services, the company is well-positioned to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient and sustainable solutions.
