Locke Supply Company started on a shoestring in 1955 when Don and Wanda Locke opened a Wholesale Plumbing Supply outlet in Bartlesville, OK. It was a Mom and Pop operation with no additional employees. In late 1956 and early 1957 the Locke's moved their company to Oklahoma City, OK. The marketing philosophy of taking the store to the customers began to develop when the first branch opened in 1958. His customers quickly proved they liked this way of doing business and today there are over 160 store locations in a 5 state area and a 45 acre distribution center to supply them all. Don's initial vision and zeal have been the driving force behind making Locke Supply the most progressive supply house in the Southwest. Today Locke Supply is a growing Plumbing, Electrical, HVAC, employee owned distributor located in Oklahoma City, OK. They supply over 160 stores in a 5 state trade area. The Locke Supply concept of taking the merchandise to the customer's territory with very competitive pricing has allowed Locke Supply to grow in areas never before considered profitable. Locke Supply maintains only the highest standards in quality of merchandise and people.
