BradyIFS has expanded its presence in the Southeastern U.S. by acquiring Associated Paper, a distributor serving Atlanta, central Georgia and Alabama.

Associated Paper’s product mix includes items in janitorial and sanitation, packaging and other foodservice-related segments.

Ronnie Kent serves as president of Associated Paper, a position he has held since 1990. The company was founded in 1967 by Jim and Bette Kent.

BradyIFS continues to grow via acquisition. In 2021 alone, the company completed five acquisitions, the most recent of which was the purchase of Janitor’s Warehouse, which closed in December 2021.
