GMCS Commentary: H.B.
McClure continues its expansion through acquisition and move towards dominating
the marketplace. We are just waiting to
see if they enter the Philadelphia marketplace and give some of the established
regional players a run for their money.
Midstate mechanical contractor H.B. McClure Co. has
acquired Kohl Brothers Inc. of Harrisburg.
Kohl ceased operations as an independent plumbing and
water treatment company on Monday, when it was taken over by H.B. McClure. The
former company, a family-run operation since 1881, had identified H.B. McClure
as an acquisition partner.
H.B. McClure will maintain all of Kohl’s service
contracts, according to a news release.
H.B. McClure provides heating, cooling, plumbing,
electrical, home comfort and related services in the commercial and residential
sectors from its Harrisburg office. Acquiring Kohl Brothers will enhance its
plumbing services, according to the news release, particularly in well repair
and water treatment.
The terms of the deal were not announced.
“H.B. McClure looks forward to providing Harrisburg’s
Kohl Brothers customers with a consistent level of service and attention,” said
Eric J. Crawford, vice president of H.B. McClure’s residential department.
