About

In 1973, Glad Mealor and Ronald Pratt founded Plumbing Distributors, Inc., now known as “PDI”. The owners, along with Glad’s son Sid Mealor as their first employee, began operations in a 3,000 square-foot warehouse in Lawrenceville, Ga., with a focus on counter sales and delivery of plumbing products. The family business was born out of a passion for identifying and fulfilling the needs of customers while exemplifying first-class service. Almost 50 years later, PDI is recognized as an industry leader in wholesale distribution and as a vibrant kitchen, bath, and lighting retailer. The company has experienced record growth in the past 30 years. Today, the independently-owned company operates 10 branch locations and seven showrooms across Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee – including the first two Kohler Signature Stores in the region. PDI comprises more than 400 employees and continues to flourish through a combination of successful partnerships, acquisitions, and a commitment to its core values of: accountability, commitment, flexibility, integrity, loyalty, and teamwork.
