Plumbing Distributors Inc.

Lawrenceville, GA, US • 250 - 499 Employees
Wholesale/Distribution

In 1973, PDI was founded by Glad Mealor and Ronald Pratt in Lawrenceville, GA, with just four employees, including Glad's son, Sid. They operated out of a 3,000 sq ft warehouse and focused only on plumbing products. Over the last 47 years, PDI has grown from its humble beginnings into a large wholesale distribution company that employs over 280 employees in three states. In the mid-1980's, with the addition of their first Kitchen & Bath Showroom, PDI transitioned from solely a plumbing distributor into the retail showroom business. Through the 1980's and 1990's, PDI experienced incredible growth and expanded their presence in Georgia. Lighting was added to the product mix in 2001 and has proven to be a natural complement to the plumbing business. By the end of 2010, PDI operated six branches and five showrooms across the state. In the mid-2010's, with its success in the Georgia market and increasing business in adjoining states, PDI expanded into Tennessee and South Carolina. In 2016, PDI partnered with Kohler and opened the Southeast's first Kohler Signature Store in Atlanta. Following that successful venture, PDI opened a second Kohler Signature Store location in Alpharetta, GA, in 2018. As a company, PDI operates ten branches, five PDI Kitchen, Bath & Lighting Showrooms, and two Kohler Signature Stores, in three states.PDI proudly remains independent and family-owned. The company was founded on solid principles- honesty, integrity, hard work, and respect for others. That is how the founders lived their lives and we carry on those qualities to this day- not only with our customers but with our employees and suppliers as well.
