Overview
Our Company
Shelter Distribution and its predecessor companies have been distributing quality roofing, siding, windows and related products to contractors, builders, lumberyards and home centers for nearly 70 years. We currently operate 36 branches in the central and southern portions of the United States. We understand that we are a critical link in the supply chain between product manufacture and installation by providing break bulk service, just-in-time and right where needed delivery service and credit accommodations to you.

We have grown through both acquisition of other building products distributors and through opening new locations. The building products distribution industry is largely comprised of regional and smaller local companies, and has been undergoing a consolidation for several years. Our goal is to be a leader in this ongoing consolidation and continue to grow through acquisition of strong, profitable, regional and local companies while opening new locations where appropriate. We have developed strategic alliances with a number of the major manufacturers of roofing, siding, windows and related products that ensure we will be able to meet the needs of our customers now and in the future. As we grow, each of our locations, which we refer to as branches, will retain their entrepreneurial spirit and ability to respond to the ever-changing local market conditions necessary to service your needs.

Our growth goals mean nothing, however, if we do not succeed at our primary purpose: to provide outstanding service, products and value to our customers. Every member of our team is committed to you whether it involves expediting delivery of products, roof loading and spreading of shingles just before your job is scheduled to commence, or delivering the final materials necessary to complete your job. We are committed to being easy to do business with and getting you...
