Headquartered in Charlotte, NC, PBS was founded in 1976 by Olen & Betty Morgan and is run today by their children, Taryn Springsteed & Matt Morgan. The Company operates nine distribution locations across five states (NC, SC, VA, GA, and TN). Taryn, Matt, and the rest of the company’s leadership team will continue to lead PBS’ dedicated employee base under the existing brand banner, ensuring continuity and consistency for customers, suppliers, and employees.
As of September 30, 2022, Pool Builders Supply became part of the Heritage Pool Supply Group family.
Matt McDermott, President of Heritage, commented, “We are thrilled to partner with Taryn and Matt and are honored to have the hard-working employees of PBS join our growing family of companies. We always look for partners with great passion for customers and employees, and PBS is a model organization for both. The combination is strategic to Heritage in many ways and a key component to Heritage’s future expansion plans in the Southeast region. We are committed to build a national network and long-term legacy in the pool and spa industry for decades to come.”
Taryn Springsteed commented, “To say I am proud of all our accomplishments over the last 48 years is an understatement. We have gone from a single warehouse in Charlotte, NC to nine branches in five states throughout the Southeast. After spending time with the Heritage team, I saw many parallels to our company, including a commitment to their employees as well as the importance of customer service. Not only am I certain that Heritage will be able to provide PBS with the additional resources needed to fuel our growth, but I am also confident they have the programs that will provide additional opportunities for our employees professionally and financially. The Heritage model is proven and we look forward to building the most positive force in the industry together for many years to come.”
