1967101-200 peopleWholesaler/Distributor/Trading CompanyC.H. Briggs Company, founded in 1967 and headquartered in Reading, Pennsylvania, was a prominent independently-owned wholesale distributor of interior specialty building materials. For over 55 years, the company served as a critical link in the construction and design supply chain, operating five locations across the U.S. Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast regions. As a woman-led enterprise, it grew significantly through six strategic acquisitions, employing approximately 130 to 160 professionals at its peak.
The company specialized in a comprehensive range of high-quality interior materials, notably serving as one of the largest distributors of DuPont products on the East Coast. Its extensive product portfolio included Corian solid surfaces, quartz, and Endura products, alongside premium brands such as Kohler and Rev-A-Shelf. C.H. Briggs provided essential supplies to manufacturers, architects, designers, fabricators, and retailers, offering everything from granite, marble, and travertine slabs to kitchen sinks, bathroom faucets, lighting fixtures, and cabinet hardware.
Despite its long-standing market presence and robust import operations—which included over 1,000 sea shipments of industrial stone—the company announced it would cease operations in early 2023. This decision followed exhaustive efforts to restructure its relationship with a primary supplier amidst significant global supply chain shifts. Throughout its history, C.H. Briggs was recognized for its dedicated sales support to the Architecture and Design (A&D) community and its commitment to sourcing diverse building materials for residential and commercial spaces.
