November 06, 2023

WARSAW, Ind. — Wildman Business Group, an industrial laundry and business solutions provider based here, reports that it has entered an agreement to acquire California-based Provision Medical Products.

For Wildman’s expansive customer base, this provides a dependable and scalable first aid supplies resource for years to come.

“Today’s market is unpredictable,” says Josh Wildman, CEO of Wildman Business Group. “Securing our own source of first aid supplies provides our customers and distributors with a quality partnership for the foreseeable future.”

While Wildman is primarily known for its uniforms and mats service, the company has been involved in the first aid and facility services industry for more than 20 years.

This strategic focus has helped the company provide further value to its customers and offers an alternative to larger players in the industry.

Rick Germano, CEO of Provision, was looking for a partner that would give the best opportunity to its distributor network.

Germano knew Wildman was the partner of choice because of the dependability and the additional product lines that would bring even more value to its national network of distributors.

Distributors now have access to AEDs, eyewash stations, complete janitorial lines, and premium restroom dispenser packages in addition to first aid kits and an expanded first aid line.

The California warehouse will be consolidated into Wildman’s Indiana warehouse to provide a centralized location with mid-country logistics, better availability, and timely shipping. Germano and Jayne Combs, general manager, will continue to work with Wildman for the foreseeable future to ensure a seamless transition for the distributors.

Wildman says it seeks to partner with other independent service providers looking for a transition to provide an alternative succession plan to large nationals to care for customers and distributors and continue their legacy.
