September 30, 2025 by John Gunderson Leave a Comment

Turner Supply

Turner Supply just announced the purchase of certain assets of Benchmark Industrial Supply, headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee.

Benchmark Industrial Supply has been providing Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) materials with a specialization in abrasives, buffs, and compounds in Tennessee for decades. Founded in 1994 by Deborah and Frank Waller, Benchmark has built its reputation on offering both essential products and the expertise to help customers achieve peak performance.

Turner Supply announced that “they will continue to serve Benchmark’s customers with the same dedication to service, while also providing access to a broader product offering and expanded resources. Benchmark’s long-standing commitment to keeping costs low and support high aligns with Turner Supply’s mission to deliver top-quality products and solutions that drive efficiency and value.”

Benchmark’s legacy employees will join Turner Supply, ensuring continuity and a smooth transition for their customers. Turner Supply’s field sales specialists and customer service teams will work alongside their new colleagues from Benchmark to expand service capabilities and strengthen relationships across the region.

Turner Supply CEO and President Chip Schramm said, “We are excited to welcome the team members from Benchmark Industrial Supply to the Turner Supply family. Their expertise in abrasives and surface finishing complements our existing product portfolio, and together we will continue to
provide exceptional value and support to our customers.”

The Benchmark asset purchase marks the 4th transaction Turner has completed since 2019 and the 10th overall.

As always, we appreciate your support and comments.
