ABOUT LOCKE SUPPLY COMPANY

Locke Supply Co. is a growing, employee-owned distributor for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC parts and equipment based in Oklahoma City. The history of the company dates to 1955, when Don and Wanda Locke opened a wholesale plumbing supply outlet in Bartlesville, OK. Locke Supply had a marketing vision of taking the merchandise to the customers' territory with exceptional customer service. It didn't take long for customers to develop a strong liking to the way Locke Supply did business which led to the opening of a second branch in 1958. This concept has allowed Locke Supply to grow in areas that are never considered. Today, there are over 190 store locations in a 7-state area and a 45-acre distribution center to supply them all.
