History

Source Atlantic was created to offer our industrial, commercial, and dealer customers One Source. As one company we achieve efficiencies in our sales, purchasing, accounting, information technology, warehousing, and logistics departments. These efficiencies drive down our overall costs in the distribution channel, and thus enhance our competitive position.

Source Atlantic, with its head office in Saint John, New Brunswick, started business as an Industrial Distribution and Services Group in the fall of 2001. Source Atlantic is comprised of seven industrial distribution and service companies that serve the needs of the industrial, contractor, and dealer markets in Atlantic Canada. Through serving these three markets, Source Atlantic is able to provide an extensive array of quality products and services. Source Atlantic's mission is to be a world-class source of goods and services for the industrial and commercial markets.
