Sale Closes the Book on Reid & Wright

Wholesaler Reid & Wright Inc. is winding down operations after selling its Broomfield. Co.. distribution business to Cedar Creek, Oklahoma City, ok.

Cedar Creek has consolidated the DC into its existing Denver, Co., branch, assuming all sales personnel and branch manager Chris Lynch.

"This is a key addition for Cedar Creek, as it brings new customers, quality people, and great products that we'll merge into our current Denver location," said Cedar Creek c.e.o. Bill Adams.

The deal closed March 21.

Cedar Creek operates 16 DCs serving 25 states, from Colorado eastward.

Bob Reid is retiring after 42 years with the company founded by his father, Bob Reid Sr., and Bob Wright in 1948.
