Munch's Supply, A Marcone Company, Acquires BellSimons.

Leading HVAC Distributor Expands in New England

Marcone is pleased to announce that its industry leading heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ("HVAC") division, Munch's Supply (the "Company") has acquired BellSimons, including its 29 branches and three distribution centers in seven states servicing the New England area. This will expand the Company's geographic footprint to 103 locations serving 18 states and the province of Ontario, Canada.

Marcone is a leading technology enabled national distributor of quality home appliance, HVAC, and plumbing parts and equipment to technicians servicing the home. This acquisition demonstrates Marcone's ongoing dedication to the HVAC marketplace and reinforces its commitment to partnering with family- and customer service-focused businesses looking for either a long-term partnership or an exit strategy.

With help from Genstar Capital, Munch's Supply joined the Marcone family of brands in 2021. Munch's Supply has been operating in the Chicagoland area for more than 65 years and is consistently ranked as a top 10 HVAC distributor in the United States that continues to pursue organic and M&A growth opportunities.
