Founded in 1946 by Roland D. Edwards and
Roland Harter, Roland and Roland began its journey as a
furniture retail business. In 1949 Roland and
Roland ventured into building products distribution with
the addition of Formica Brand Laminate and we have been
a leading distributor of Formica brand products ever
since. In 1962 Roland Harter
retired and Roland Edward's son-in-law C. Keith Rust
joined the company. In 1964 the retail furniture
division was sold and in 1966, following Roland Edward's
untimely death, Keith found himself at the helm.
Keith guided the Company for the next
35 years as we both expanded our product offering and
the geographic area we service resulting in Roland &
Roland, Inc. positioning ourselves as an industry leader
in building product distribution in central and eastern
Pennsylvania. In 1984 Keith's son W. K. (Chip)
Rust joined the business and in 1996 took over
day-to-day responsibilities of the Company. In
June 2002 Keith retired from the business and in October
2002 Chip acquired the business which he continues to
lead today.
At Roland & Roland, Inc. we are proud
of our history and continue our commitment to provide
superior customer service. We are also excited
about the opportunities the future holds for our Company
and we invite those who we do not currently supply to
give us the opportunity to service your building
products needs. |
