Meyer Distributing announced the addition of its new Calgary, Alberta, Canada location. The cross-dock site will have a direct, next-day feed from Meyer’s Hermiston, Oregon, distribution hub which houses one of the largest inventories of automotive accessories, exhaust and RV parts in the region.
“We’re excited to expand our Canada operations,” said John Thompson, general manager of Meyer Distributing Canada. “We received phenomenal support for our entry into Ontario, and we hope to match that in Alberta. We have a lot of unique and diversified product offerings to help customers grow their sales, and we look forward to connecting Calgary and Edmonton to our network.”
“We have historically pursued most markets from scratch and with organic growth, and it has served us well,” added Jeff Braun, CEO of Meyer. “That being said, we’re always considering acquisition opportunities in markets we service and are looking for diversified distribution opportunities in electrical, HVAC and industrial supplies, as well as our traditional automotive segments. Anyone considering an exit from a distribution business in these verticals should reach out to acquisitions@meyerdistributing.com.”
