This union brings together two of the largest independent gypsum supply buying groups in the United States. AD Gypsum Supply is now comprised of 153 members with 387 branch locations.
The new AD Gypsum Supply Division will be part of the AD Building Materials Business Unit and will continue to be led by Dan Maroni. Robb Rugg, longtime Drake Group executive director, will be joining the new division in a consulting role through 2021 focused on the non-purchasing side of value-add.
