Wilmar Industries, Inc.
 PROFILE
When something breaks, bursts, or drips in an apartment, managers can call Wilmar Industries, a national distributor of repair and maintenance products. The firm sells plumbing, hardware, electrical, janitorial, and related products under private labels (Wilmar and Wilflo), as well as brand names. It uses a direct sales force, telephone sales, and direct mailings. Wilmar more than doubled its size in October 2000 with its purchase of plumbing supplier Barnett (Premier, ProPlus, Barnett, Rx, U.S. Lock, and Legend brands). The company and its subsidiary run about 55 distribution centers in the US. Investment firm Parthenon Capital and an investor group including management bought Wilmar in May 2000.
