With more than 150 years in business, Reinders has been a trusted supplier of professional grade supplies in the Midwest for generations.
SiteOne Landscape Supply recently acquired the Sussex, Wisconsin-based company.
Founded in 1866 in Elk Grove, Wisconsin, Reinders had been a fifth-generation, family owned distributor of irrigation, agronomics, holiday and landscape lighting, and landscape supplies with 12 locations in Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas and Minnesota.
With more than 150 years of industry leadership, Reinders is known for its technical expertise, rapid on-site diagnostics and tailored product recommendations.
SiteOne says it will build on Reinders' storied reputation, while expanding inventory depth, operational support and resources.
"As a very successful fifth-generation, family owned company, Reinders is well-known and respected in the green industry for quality and reliability, a commitment to exceptional customer service and for helping their customers succeed — values we share at SiteOne," said Doug Black, chairman and CEO of SiteOne. "This acquisition expands our ability to offer the full line of landscape supplies to our combined customers, enhances our presence in the market, and provides an avenue for further expansion in the growing Midwest market."
According to Reinders, company officials evaluated multiple options before "choosing to partner with SiteOne, citing shared values, a focus on the green industry, strong resources and capabilities and a commitment to preserving its legacy," according to a news release. Reinders will continue operating under its established name, maintaining the customer relationships and service model that have defined the company for generations, while leveraging the full resources and capabilities of SiteOne.
"For more than 150 years, we have built a name, a brand and a legacy in the green industry," said Ann Reinders, vice president of operations at Reinders, who will remain with the business following the acquisition. "While the Reinders family has led the company for five generations, it's our incredible people who have built the brand. SiteOne is the best partner to continue to further the service excellence and quality products the green industry deserves. I look forward to leading Reinders into our next phase, strengthened by the infrastructure, leadership and people-focused approach SiteOne provides."
Based in Roswell, Georgia, SiteOne Landscape Supply is a wholesale distributor of landscape supplies in the United States and Canada.
