Affiliated Distributors is the largest wholesale buying and marketing group in North America. We are comprised of over 530 independent distributor companies with over 3,000 locations in the U.S. and Canada. Our membership commands over $27 Billion in sales across six industries: electrical supplies; industrial supplies; plumbing supplies; HVAC equipment and supplies; drywall and drywall related products; and pipe, valves and fittings.
A-D is committed to the success of the independent distributor. We differentiate ourselves from traditional buying groups by building positive, marketing-oriented relationships between our members and our suppliers. Year after year, A-D members in every A-D division have grown faster than the industry as a whole.
Affiliated Distributors works to level the playing field for the best independents in the six industries we serve. We work to ensure that the suppliers who treat our members fairly are treated fairly in return. For 29 years, we have been proud to say, "We stand with independents" and we always will.
