Founded in 1967 in Birmingham, Ram Tool had grown to include locations across Alabama and in Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia and Washington DC.
Woman-owned since Mimi Head purchased the business from founder Dee Gonder, Mimi’s daughter Hillery Head has been CEO since 2009, sharing leadership with her sister, Maye.
White Cap CEO John Stegeman and President Alan Sollenberger will lead the combined firm, with Ram Tool President Page Naftel becoming chief sales officer.
“White Cap and Ram Tool drive towards the same mission of providing knowledgeable, customer-centric service to professional contractors for all specialty construction and concrete accessory needs,” said Stegeman. “White Cap and Ram Tool have an aligned culture centered on service and relationship-building, which makes us excited for everything to come with our combination.”
The combination enhances products, services and locations for White Cap, Sollenberger added.
White Cap has 400 branches across the U.S. and Canada with more than 7,000 employees.
