Warehouse/Driver

For over 75 years, Purvis Industries has been proud to be a family-owned and operated industrial distributor. Today, the company has 101 locations in 17 states and is one of the country's most significant independent bearing and power transmission distributors. As we grow and continue to expand, our customers find that we stay true to what George Purvis told us more than 75 years ago: if you sell the best products, know the products and how to apply them and keep those products on your shelf, you can take care of your customer, and you will be successful. Let Purvis Industries show you how we practice these principles daily!
