“Good people make a good company. You can buy a kitchen sink anywhere, but customer service sets Ihrie Supply Company apart from the rest. Quality service keeps our customers happy, satisfied, and loyal.” - Edward Ihrie. That was the foundation Ihrie Supply was created on, and the growth and success of the company is proof it works.
How It All Started
In 1972, W.L. Smith Supply Co. stockholder Ed Ihrie agreed to trade his ownership of Smith’s other branches for complete ownership of the Wilson and Roanoke Rapids branches. Under Ed Ihrie’s ownership, the company changed its name to Ihrie Supply Company and grew from two branches with seven employees and 8400 sq. ft. of warehouse to eight branches with over 65 employees and 125,000 sq. ft. of warehouse. Our customers include local plumbers and building contractors to universities, military bases, hospitals, and anyone in between.
