Our History

Kelley Supply was founded by George Kelley in 1953. Over the years, Kelley Supply has grown from a locally-based business to a distribution service that consistently delivers to a four-state area in the Midwest. We have expanded our ordering and delivering capabilities nationwide.

Bernard “Bernie” Alberts purchased Kelley Supply in 1981. His business philosophy and strategy was “to provide Kelley Supply customers the best products, service, and support available at a competitive price”. To this day, we still strive to meet our customers’ needs the first time… every time. To better serve our customers’ increasing and rapidly changing needs, we even expanded our inventoried items. This allows us to keep stock on hand for customers to quickly and efficiently ship products when customers run low.

Today, Kelley Supply is owned by Greg Alberts and continues to serve its core business with great pride. We are continuously expanding into other industries, constantly striving to meet our present and future customers’ needs. The future is very bright as Kelley Supply explores new ways of partnering with its vendors and manufacturers to supply the best products and services at the lowest possible prices.
