Home Depot’s $5.5 Billion GMS Acquisition Brings Westside Legacy

The Home Depot has expanded its reach in the professional construction supply market through its acquisition of GMS Inc., a move that effectively brings the legacy of Westside Building Material into Home Depot’s growing pro distribution network. While Home Depot did not purchase Westside directly, Westside became part of GMS in 2021, and GMS is now operating under Home Depot’s subsidiary SRS Distribution.
