Sidley represented SupplyHouse, a proprietary e-commerce platform serving professionals in the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades, in connection with a minority investment from KKR & Co., a global private equity firm. Since its founding more than 20 years ago, SupplyHouse has served over seven million customers and has established itself as a leading online construction retailer, driven by its TradeMaster loyalty program, nationwide logistics network, and best-in-class, customer-centric service team. KKR’s minority investment, made through its Ascendant Strategy platform, will help accelerate SupplyHouse’s next phase of growth.

Sekhon, Karin Baca, Rudy Ramirez, and Kimberly Sheehan (M&A and Private Equity); Eric Wolf, Gregory Matisoff, Nicholas Carballo, and Lindsay Fisher-McFarland (Employee Benefits and Executive Compensation); Steven Rutkovsky, Shayona Schiely, Shneur Wolvovsky, Christian Kelling, and Damian Tan (Global Finance); Rachel Kleinberg and Jonathan Westreich (Tax); and Rachelle Soderstrom (Technology and Life Sciences Transactions).
