National Wholesale Supply in Kilgore has joined the ETBlitz.com advertising family.

NWS represents the very best – and HAS the very best – in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC, electrical and waterworks, and appliances. Bottom line: if it’s in those areas and you need it, they’ve got it.

The guys are located at 300 Southport Road.

“National Wholesale Supply is a company, ran locally by guys like Mike Anthony and Wade Silvey and a bunch of other great guys, that was started in North Texas at roughly the same time I came to Kilgore, right around the same time, back in 2002,” said Mitch Lucas, editor / publisher of ETBlitz.com. “Of course, we’ve got NWS here in Kilgore, and we’re thankful for that – I know a LOT of our local industry is SO thankful for that, but NWS has stores, has branches, all over the state, Oklahoma and Louisiana. If you go in an NWS, if you need something, their guys are knowledgeable, they’re helpful, and if you’re looking for something, they’ll make sure you get it. I mean, you cannot ask for more than that.

“NWS fits right in with ETBlitz.com. They love the Kilgore community. Their guys live and work here. Their kids go to school and are in the programs here, and not just sports programs, but all kinds of extracurricular activities. NWS is us – I don’t know if that’s proper English!

“But NWS, they’re Texas. They’re East Texas. That’s what ETBlitz is all about, and we could not be happier to have them as an advertising partner. If you need anything in the plumbing area, electrical, any kind of HVAC supplies, waterworks supply, even hospitality – heck, they’ve even got a display area. The Big Green Egg, those great grills? That’s what I’m talking about. Go see the guys and they’ll hook you up.”

NWS was started by Charlie Reynolds in 2002, according to the company’s website, Home | National Wholesale Supply (nws-inc.com). He did it in Denton and Mesquite, and with five people.

They’re now across all three states we mentioned earlier in this story, and employ well over 500.

Their mission statement: “To provide quality customer service through the way we serve our customers, employees, and communities by sharing our time, talents and knowledge in commercial and residential plumbing, HVAC, hot water, waterworks, hospitality and electrical parts, supplies and equipment.”

They do that with four core values they call the 4 C’s: Culture, Competency, Character and Customer Service.

What’s really cool: their online showroom. And here it is: National Wholesale Supply Showroom.

So, if you need to get to NWS, again, 300 Southport Road in Kilgore. Call ‘em at (903) 218-5255, or visit their main website, the company’s website, at Home | National Wholesale Supply (nws-inc.com)

NWS joins a growing list of businesses and industry that is proud to be partnered with ETBlitz.com, and that we are, in turn, proud to have as partners, including Whataburger, Energy Weldfab, Austin Bank, ETX Electrical, and Clower Meat Market of Kilgore.

ETBlitz has advertising packages for any budget, literally, to get businesses involved in the East Texas sports and entertainment market.

After launching ETBlitz.com in October, 2023, it’s been a steep, quick climb. We believe we are now the premier destination for high school sports coverage online for the schools in our coverage area (in alphabetical order): Arp, Gilmer, Gladewater, Henderson, Kilgore, Kilgore College, Leverett’s Chapel, Overton, Sabine, Tatum, Troup, West Rusk and White Oak.

But ETBlitz.com is more than just your typical sports site.

From our own mission statement: “We are committed to showcasing the heart and soul of our East Texas communities through comprehensive coverage of local high school sports and extracurricular activities. We believe in celebrating the dedication, talent, and achievements of student athletes, musicians, dancers, and performers. Our mission is to provide engaging and inclusive media coverage that not only highlights athletic prowess but also recognizes the diverse talents and passions that enrich our schools and unite our community.”

We bring you video and photos of drill teams, and bands. When cheer competitions come up in January, we’ll have it. Band contests – you bet.

We’re ETBlitz.com – the “ET” stands for “East Texas.” And that’s you.
