A Message from the President & CEO

Welcome to the Porter-Walker Website!

Porter-Walker is an award-winning marketer and distributor of a full line of industrial, safety and MRO supplies. Our principal aim is to create value for our customers and strategic partners by leveraging our people, resources and collective experience.

This site contains a wealth of information about Porter-Walker that will enable you to get to know us better – whether you’re a supply-chain executive, a contractor foreman or a prospective employee. That being said, here are four things that we would like you to know:

  • Porter-Walker has been in business since 1907–one of the oldest and most well-established companies in the industry.
  • Porter-Walker, through its national distribution network, has more than $70 million in inventory with same-day shipping on most items.
  • Porter-Walker has successfully handled individual contracts in excess of $20 million/year for almost a decade.
  • Porter-Walker has more continuous supply experience with nuclear restart projects than any other industrial/MRO supplier in the United States.

At Porter-Walker, we are always interested in exploring synergies with new customers and strategic partners, and we are always looking for good people. We have been successful for more than 100 years, and we are absolutely driven to build upon that success going forward.

Thank you for visiting our site, and please come back often. We also invite you to contact us directly.

Sincerely,
Doug Venable
