In its second add-on since being acquired by private equity firm TruLink Capital in January, Omaha, NE-based fasteners, tools and construction supplies distributor SouthernCarlson acquired W Construction Supply.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

W Construction Supply

Based in Barberton, OH, W Construction Supply offers rebar fabrication, concrete and masonry distribution and equipment rental services from two facilities in Ohio. The acquisition adds rebar fabrication capabilities to SouthernCarlson’s platform.

W Construction Supply will continue to operate under its existing name through the transition.

“Gary [Parsons Jr., Founder of W Construction Supply] and his team have built a great business, with deep customer relationships, strong capabilities, and a reputation for providing best-in-class service,” said Andrei Militaru, President and CEO of SouthernCarlson. “Their rebar fabrication expertise is a natural fit, and we look forward to supporting their continued growth while preserving the name, service and culture that customers know and trust.”

Truelink Capital Co-Founder and Managing Partner Todd Golditch said the firm will continue its active M&A strategy and continue to invest behind SouthernCarlson to build a “broader, more capable platform.” 

TruLink Capital acquired SouthernCarlson from Kyocera Corp. in January. In March, Southern Carlson acquired Greenwald Supply Direct.
