Pumping solutions and industrial supplies distributor DXP Enterprises has inked its first bolt-on of 2025.

The Houston-based company announced Feb. 6 that it has completed an acquisition of Arroyo Process Equipment — a Barstow, FL-based distributor of pumps, process equipment and related service and repairs. It was founded in 1968.

Operating out of three locations servicing northern, central and southern Florida, Arroyo serves asphalt, mining, industrial water, chemical and other industrial markets.

Terms of the deal — which closed Jan. 31 — weren’t disclosed. But, DXP noted that Arroyo’s sales and adjusted EBITDA for calendar 2024 were about $26.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

“We have always respected and followed Arroyo’s success over the years,” DXP Chairman and CEO David Little said. “Arroyo adds another great company to our rotating equipment platform and furthers our vision around being the leading North American rotating equipment company. Arroyo provides DXP with exceptional sales expertise that will enhance our efforts and ability to collaborate and serve our customers and grow DXP further.”

DXP completed six acquisitions in 2024, most recently in the form of Omaha, NE-based manufacturers representative Burt Gurney & Associations and Patterson, CA-based vacuum pump supplier MaxVac — both in November.

“We have dialogued for some time and welcome Arroyo’s talented and hardworking employees to the DXP team,” DXP CFO Kent Yee added. “We continue to execute on our strategy of making acquisitions in markets and business models where we can continue to enhance DXP. Arroyo continues to diversify DXP’s end markets and provides scale in Florida, a market we have not historically served well.”

On MDM’s 2024 Top Distributors Lists, DXP was No. 21 for Industrial Supplies, No. 8 for MRO, No. 8 for Power Transmission/Bearings and No. 4 for Fluid Power.
