In July of 1984, Bill Hempel started Hempel Pipe &
Supply, Inc.
Bill started the company out of his Father
In-Law's (Joman Steel) scrap company. Bill knew that by boosting
inventory and offering "outstanding service" he would
succeed. His ideas and hard work paid off. For the first 10
years the company had annual sales increases of 25 percent.
In
August of 1994 he moved the company into a new facility at 951
S. Rolff Street. The complex, which includes a 20,000 square
foot warehouse and a 200 foot long covered pipe shed on 5 acres,
is just up from the company's old location.
Hempel
stocks pipe ranging from 1/8" diameter all the way up to
36" diameter. Since opening in 1984 Hempel has built an
inventory that ranges from standard pipe fittings up to your
"hard to find items!" If they don't have it on the
shelf you can rest assure it will be delivered the next day.
In
November 2001, Hempel opened its second location in Las Vegas,
Nevada. Hempel's goals with that location are to service the Power
Industry and offer its services to the Industrial/Commercial
contractors in the Southwest Region.
With
the addition of Las Vegas division, Hempel Pipe now totals
25,000 square feet of product space and 18 employees that make
up the team that sees your order through from start to finish.
When
you come to our new will call center in Davenport you can expect
to be greeted by 3 experienced salespeople to help you with your
requirements.
Accurate, same-day
deliveries, a large complete inventory, quick, efficient counter
service and a high level of honesty and integrity are some of
the standards at Hempel Pipe & Supply, Inc.
