Ed’s Supply Expansion Story

In the world of HVAC and refrigeration supply, consistency and trust matter. That’s what Ed’s Supply has delivered for over 75 years, beginning with a single storefront and growing into a regional network serving customers across multiple states. This is the story of how that journey unfolded, marked by strategic growth, strong relationships, and a steadfast commitment to service.

Humble Beginnings 

Ed’s Supply was founded in 1957 in Nashville, Tennessee. What started as a small operation was driven by a big vision: to offer reliable HVAC and refrigeration parts with exceptional customer service. In those early days, business was built on handshakes, trust, and long hours…traits that still define us today.

The original storefront was modest, but it quickly became a go-to destination for local contractors, technicians, and businesses. The idea was simple: stock the right parts, treat customers like family, and go the extra mile to help them succeed.

Steady Growth Through the Years

As demand grew, so did we. In the 1970s and ‘80s, Ed’s Supply began expanding beyond Nashville, opening new branches throughout Tennessee to serve more communities. Each location exemplified our values and personal touch that customers had come to expect.

Our growth wasn’t just about adding locations, it was about adding value. By investing in our people and training our teams thoroughly, we ensured every branch could deliver the same expertise and support that customers received at our original location.

In the years that followed, Ed’s Supply expanded beyond state lines, growing our presence into Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Georgia. With 22 branches, and more on the way, we’ve strategically established locations to serve the evolving needs of contractors and service providers in rapidly growing markets.

Key Partnerships and Product Growth

One of the keys to our successful expansion has been our partnerships with top manufacturers and trusted industry brands. These relationships have allowed us to offer reliable product lines across all our locations, ensuring our customers always have access to the tools and parts they need.

Ed’s Supply specializes in providing high-quality parts and equipment for all HVAC and refrigeration needs. We offer a comprehensive inventory to support residential, commercial, and industrial applications, so contractors can rest assured that they have the right products when and where they need them. 

Today, Ed’s Supply is still growing, but our mission will always stay the same: delivering personalized service, expert guidance, and genuine care at each and every branch.

Future-Minded

As we look to the future, our mission remains unchanged. We will continue to learn and grow, serving more professionals in more communities, while staying grounded in the values that got us here in the first place. We want to thank all our customers, partners, and team members who have been part of this journey. Your trust and loyalty have made it all possible!
