WW Grainger Buys Majority Stake In Parts Distributor Torhefe
W.W. Grainger Inc. (GWW) has acquired an 80% stake in Colombian maintenance parts distributor Torhefe SA through the formation of a joint venture, increasing its Latin American presence.
Fortunes for the industrial-products provider have improved the past year amid a rebounding global economy, which it tends to mirror because of the breadth of its product offerings.
Torhefe, which will be re-named Grainger Colombia, had revenue of $23 million last year.
