Ferguson Expands with Acquisitions in New York and California
US: Ferguson, a leading distributor of plumbing and industrial products, announced the acquisition of two distributors: Gerster Equipment in Buffalo, New York, and United Water Works (UWW) in Santa Ana, California. Gerster, which also operates in Syracuse, distributes Trane and Mitsubishi HVAC systems, supporting Ferguson's strategy to appeal to "dual-trade" plumbing and HVAC contractors in the region. UWW supplies pipe, water, sewer, and storm products in the Los Angeles and Orange County markets, strengthening Ferguson’s waterworks business in greater Los Angeles. These acquisitions bring Ferguson's total number to 10 for the fiscal year ending July 31, marking a strong year of growth across various sectors including plumbing, HVAC, waterworks, and fire protection.
