History
In 1973, Jim Resch founded Gulfside Supply, Inc. with a single branch. Today, it has grown into the nation’s largest family-owned distributor of roofing and building products, with locations across the U.S.—still proudly owned and operated by the Resch family.
Through steady expansion and strategic acquisitions, including key additions like American Wholesale, JEH/Eagle Supply, Kimal Lumber, and more recent acquisitions such as R & S Supply and Elite Roofing Supply, Gulfeagle has significantly broadened its national presence.
With over 50 years of success, we continue to operate from our headquarters in Tampa, Florida, and our satellite office in Phoenix, Arizona. Our growth is a testament to the dedication of our people and our unwavering commitment to exceptional service. As we look to the future, we remain focused on upholding the core values that have guided us through decades of growth and innovation.
