L&W Supply Names New District Manager

CHICAGO – December 16, 2019 – L&W Supply is excited to announce that Dave Ritchie has accepted the role of District Manager for the Triangle Triad District, covering the Raleigh-Durham-Winston Salem metropolitan areas.

Dave has been in the industry for over 15 years and has a proven track record of growth and expansion throughout his career. Most recently, he served as Business Development Manager for North Carolina with L&W Supply. Prior to this, he spent the last 11 years as a co-owner of Delta Gypsum, helping the company grow 500% while adding two greenfield branches and one acquisition. Delta Gypsum was acquired by L&W Supply in early 2019.

“We could not be happier to add Dave to our team,” says Tim Mahaffey, Regional Vice President for L&W Supply’s Southeast Region. “Our branches throughout the area will no doubt benefit greatly from Dave’s leadership and experience.”

As District Manager of the newly formed Triangle Triad District, Dave will be responsible for the management of L&W Supply’s branches throughout central North Carolina, with a focus on developing talent and providing world-class customer service.
