Any newsletter subscriber of Industrial Distribution has probably noticed that Wurth Industry North America has had frequent headlines over the past six months. That’s because there’s been plenty of news out of the Indianapolis-based distributor of fasteners, MRO and safety supplies.

Wurth Industry, part of Germany-based Wurth Group — the world’s largest industrial distributor — has made three acquisitions since late October 2020. The most recent was the biggest of them, in the form of Louisville-based ORR Safety, which added 125 million dollars of revenue to the company.

On April 1, the Wurth Industry announced the launch of a new company, Wurth Additive Group, which provides expanded 3D printing products and services, including financing and rental options on equipment.

In this episode, I speak with Dan Hill, CEO for Würth Industry North America, about these recent developments and how the company has managed all its recent activity.
