ROANOKE, Va. – W.S. Connelly & Company and Tenbarge Seed, providers of seed, fertilizer, erosion control and plant protection solutions, recently merged.
TBS and WSC will begin integrating business operations in December; however, both companies will maintain their brand equity in the marketplace.
“We celebrate this new milestone today as we join these two independently owned companies,” said Kevin Connelly, the WSC vice president. “Our family businesses have worked together for over 20 years. Our teams have trained together. Our executives have served on boards together. We purchase from one another. Combining the commitment we have for our staff and the passion we share for our customers is what will make this partnership successful. Simply put, we are formally merging two incredible family businesses that have been in partnership for over 20 years.”
TBS has operated for over 80 years and across three generations in the golf, lawn care and sports turf industries.
