BFG Supply (“BFG”), a leading technology-enabled distributor to the green industry, has acquired GROSouth (“GS”), a leading lawn and garden distributor in the Southeast. The acquisition of GS expands BFG’s footprint and product selection that will further improve service levels to customers in the green industry. The combined company operates 21 warehouses across the US and Canada totaling more than 1.4 million square feet.

Headquartered in Burton, OH, BFG was founded in 1972 and is celebrating its 50th year of operation in 2022. BFG distributes a full-line of products across complementary green industry segments including professional horticulture, lawn & garden, hydroponic, and Controlled Environment Agriculture (“CEA”).

GS, headquartered in Montgomery, AL, was founded in 1945 and has served customers for over 75 years. The company distributes lawn, garden, horticultural and agricultural products to garden centers, farm supply stores, retail nurseries and hardware stores. GS ships to customers across eight states in the Southeast from their Montgomery warehouse. “GROSouth is a leading lawn and garden distributor and BFG is proud to partner with Scott Morgan and the entire team at GS. GROSouth has become a reliable supplier in the Southeast to lawn and garden centers. Both companies share a strong commitment to customer service and have complementary company cultures that will promote future growth and efficiencies.”, said Dave Daily, President and CEO of BFG. Scott Morgan, Vice President of GS added, “GROSouth is excited to become a part of the BFG family and we’re confident in the opportunity that lies ahead.

At GROSouth, we can trace our beginnings back to 1945 when James S. Morgan founded Montgomery Seed and Supply Company in downtown Montgomery, Alabama, as a retail seed dealer. Montgomery Seed and Supply Company grew over the years into a wholesale distribution center of lawn and garden supplies, which became known as GROSouth of Alabama.

In 1989 Georgia Golf and Grower, located in Atlanta, was added to the company and operated as GROSouth of Georgia. In 1995 Dothan Seed and Supply was added to the company as SEEDSouth. In 2003 the three companies merged under one name, GROSouth, Inc. We operated three distribution centers until July 2016. Today we operate one distribution center servicing eight states.

We are a wholesale distributor of lawn, garden, horticultural and agricultural products. Our customers include garden centers, farm supply stores, retail nurseries and hardware stores, as well as commercial greenhouses, nurseries and farmers. We also service government, commercial and institutional accounts engaged in turf and grounds maintenance. A retail seed and supply store has grown over the years into the Southeast’s leading distributor of seed, lawn, garden and growing supplies.
