In 1976, Ralph Porter and his son Jim started Porter Supply Company. Ralph worked in the office and Jim drove a used pick-up for deliveries. They rented an 8,000-sq. ft. building, and the first year's sales totaled $310,000.00. Ralph's son, Bud Porter has been active with the company since 1983, and is currently Vice-President. In 1991, Porter expanded into the same building, but occupied two units totaling 18,000 sq. ft. In 1996 they purchased the building at the current location and completely renovated it to meet their needs. In 1999, they opened an 8,000-sq. ft. will-call facility in downtown Chicago, near the loop. With the addition of the downtown location, Porter Pipe now totals 55,000 sq. ft. of product space, 78 employees and sales for the last fiscal of $23 million. 10 inside salesmen are at order desks, ready for your calls. 1 of 9 outside salesmen will stop by to make sure every detail of your order is handled, as you would have it. 18 office personnel, 11 truck drivers, 5 fabricators, and 20 warehouse employees make up the team that sees your order through from start to finish. Should you need to be at the will-call counter, one of the 4 counter service people can assist you in getting you what you require. Porter Pipe, as they became in 1999, is owned and operated by first generation management’s, and will be well into the next century. MISSION STATEMENT Through faith in GOD, we at Porter Pipe & Supply are dedicated to superior service, honesty and integrity in all we do. Our commitment to a positive attitude and attention to detail will ensure complete customer satisfaction.
