F.W. Webb is pleased to announce the acquisition of Rising Sun Plumbing Supply in Philadelphia, and Steinberg Plumbing Supply, in Melrose Park, Pennsylvania.

Rising Sun, established in 1989, and Steinberg, founded in 1953, have served Philadelphia, Bucks and Montgomery counties for decades. The facilities are one-stop shops for plumbing, heating and industrial supplies for residential, commercial and industrial projects.

"Greater Philadelphia is one of the largest markets in the Northeast," said CEO Bob Mucciarone. "We are excited to offer our wide array of products and exemplary service to our expanded customer base"

Both locations will operate under the F.W. Webb umbrella effective Monday, June 5. Rising Sun and Steinberg employees are joining the F.W. Webb team, including former owner Ed Preston, who will serve as store manager at the Philadelphia location.

"I'm confident that F.W. Webb will continue to provide customers with outstanding service and personalized solutions," Preston said. "Webb's extensive inventory and strong distribution network will only enhance our customers’ experience each time they walk through the front door."

Webb's newest locations will offer customers both delivery and will-call options to help simplify and expedite purchases.

This acquisition establishes the company's third and fourth wholesale locations in the state of Pennsylvania, joining existing locations Allentown and Aston.
