Wholesale Pump & Supply, Inc. was founded in
1953 and is a Louisiana based, family-owned business. WPS began as a supplier of groundwater drilling and pumping equipment, well water supplies, and related components. As time progressed and customer demand grew, the need
to expand into other business channels became a necessity. In the early 1970’s, WPS expanded their product offerings for the municipal and industrial markets, with products for freshwater and wastewater collection and transmission. WPS currently has nine branches with stocking warehouses located in Louisiana, East Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Alabama. WPS works with independent water well drillers, engineering firms, rural water systems, major municipalities, and industrial plants of all sizes. WPS is a member of many state and regional groundwater, rural water system, and municipal water system associations. We believe participation in these organizations help bring products and education to professionals in the water well, wastewater, rural water, and system operations during the annual trade shows throughout the region.
WPS is excited to be partnering with Louisiana 811 and getting the message of safe excavation out to our customers. Most of the groundwater, municipal, and industrial piping, power cabling, control wires, and septic systems are located underground. Therefore, most of our customers must excavate on certain job sites. WPS has always tried to emphasize to customers with the
811 slogan “Know What’s Below. Call Before You Dig!”. A little preparation before the job can lead to fewer problems during the job. If you would like more information about Wholesale Pump & Supply, Inc., please visit our website at www.wpspump.com.
on your journey to achieve zero damage!
