SRS Acquisition Corporation enters Nebraska with the opening of a Shake & Shingle Supply Location in Omaha, Nebraska.



SRS Acquisition Corporation (“SRS” or “the Company”) announced today that it has opened a new location in Omaha, Nebraska under the Shake & Shingle Supply name.  The location will carry a full line of residential and commercial roofing products and focus on servicing the area’s premier roofing contractors, remodeling contractors and home builders.  The location will service the Omaha, Lincoln and Council Bluffs metropolitan areas and surrounding communities throughout Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa.

 
The branch in Omaha, Nebraska will be led by Branch Manager Julian Gonzales, who has a distinguished career of over ten years in the industry in various markets across the country.  With Julian’s experience, he will develop contacts and local relationships quickly in this market and will bring the energy, and leadership abilities to build a strong team and provide roofing contractors with outstanding service and support.  Julian will report directly to Troy Baker, District Manager of SRS’ Shake & Shingle division.
 
Ron Ross, Chief Executive Officer of SRS Acquisition Corporation, commented, "Expanding into the Omaha market has been high on our priority list since we started the company back in 2008. We are very familiar with this market and from there we fully expect to seed the Lincoln market for another stand-alone branch in the very near future. Omaha was attractive to us because it allows us to expand our footprint into Nebraska, a state where we have had a strong track record. It is also a market that is very prone to storm activity and enjoys a strong underlying economy.”
 
Headquartered in McKinney, TX, SRS Acquisition is a building products distribution holding company that with the addition of this new location will operate 63 locations in 25 states under the names:  Suncoast Roofers Supply (FL), Southern Shingles (TX/OK/LA/MO/AR), Rowe Supply (GA/SC), Atlanta Roofing Supply (GA), Wilson Wholesale (IL/MN), Century Building Supply (IL), River City Wholesale (KY), Superior Distribution (TN/MD/VA/NC), Shake & Shingle Supply (CO/KS/MO/NE/IL), Stewart Building & Roofing Supply (AZ), Roofline Supply (OR/CA), Stoneway Roofing Supply (WA), Pace Supply (PA/CT) and Sierra Roofing Supply (NV). SRS is a portfolio company of AEA Investors, LLC.
