RICHARDS SUPPLY

Richards was founded over 75 years ago in 1937 by Mr. L.K. "Dick" Richards. Mr. Richards owned and operated the company until 1972, when he sold the company to John W. Schoen and his son John E. Schoen. They operated Richards until 1986, when they sold the company to Steve Wessinger who had previously worked for Richards from 1967 to 1972. Mr. Wessinger rejoined the company in 1980 and now serves as Chief Executive Officer. Through the years these three owners have had one core business and personal philosophy......"The Customer is the Boss." Richards has a long history and reputation as a very good supply house with quality people who take care of business.
