Aramsco Acquires Retailers Supply

PAULSBORO, N.J.—May 23, 2022—Aramsco, Inc. recently announced the acquisition of Retailers Supply, a regional distributor of janitorial supplies and equipment. Based in New Albany, Indiana, Retailers Supply serves customers in the education, industrial, retail, entertainment, and other commercial market segments. This transaction marks Aramsco’s ninth acquisition in the janitorial supplies and equipment industry over the past three years.

“Retailers Supply and Aramsco share a focus on the success of their customers,” commented Andrew Liebert, vice president of sales at Aramsco. “We are thrilled to welcome Kevin Burke and the Retailers Supply employees, customers, and vendor partners to the Aramsco family. We look forward to continuing to build on their great reputation.”

Founded in 1948, Retailers Supply started out selling burlap sacks, twine, and shoe polish to corner grocery stores. Today, the company is a supplier-partner in the janitorial and sanitary maintenance industry. While the business has changed since its beginning, the company remains dedicated to helping the customer identify the best and most cost-effective solutions for facility maintenance.

“I am excited about what the transaction brings for our employees, customers, and vendors,” said Kevin Burke, president of Retailers Supply. “We are excited to be part of the Aramsco team and for the opportunity to provide our customers with an even broader product offering.”

“This transaction is another example of our commitment to building the best team in the industry both organically and through acquisition,” added Chris Kim, vice president of business development at Aramsco. “Our vision is to be the premier national service provider for the industries we serve. The acquisition of Retailers Supply and their team is another great addition to our janitorial and supply business.”
