Sparky's Metal Supply’s roots in the metals & materials industry go all the way back to a small metals distribution business started in 1953 in upstate New York called Murphy & Nolan. Jack Nolan, co-founder of Murphy & Nolan, had a son named John who would go on to work for Murphy & Nolan in the early 1970s. It was during this time that John had his first exposure to the world of metals & materials.
In 1976, John went out on his own and founded Nolan Supply Corporation, which would grow into a multi-million dollar industrial supply company thanks to an impressive metals & materials line of business.
John would evolve his business over time, reducing reliance on in-stock inventory, building a formidable alliance of trusted supply and service partners, introducing modern efficiencies, and passing along cost savings to customers. Through his unmatched pool of reliable metals & materials partners, decades of lessons learned, and an unparalleled knowledge of metals & materials, John perfected the low-to-no inventory online sales model and is redefining the space through Sparky’s Metal Supply.
