PrimeSource Acquires Progressive Steel and Wire LLC
PrimeSource Building Products Inc., the country’s largest full-service wholesale distributor of building materials and purveyor of construction fasteners worldwide, has announced the acquisition of Progressive Steel and Wire LLC (PSW). PSW was previously part of a joint venture between Dubai Wire and PrimeSource, but PrimeSource is now taking 100 percent ownership and control.
“We are excited to meet the demand for high quality, domestically produced collated nails by taking full ownership of Progressive Steel and Wire,” said Ken Fishbein and Mona Zinman, co-chief executive officers of PrimeSource Building Products Inc. in a joint statement. “Our goal is to bring nail and wire product manufacturing back to the USA and to create more jobs here at home.”
