Wittek Golf Acquires Southern Golf Flags
Wittek Golf, a P&W Golf Supply company announced last week the recent acquisition of Meredith Industries, DBA Southern Golf Flags based out of Vidalia, GA in early September of this year. Wittek’s acquisition of Southern Golf Flags, whose primary focus has been manufacturing custom golf flags and apparel for over 35 years, adds to their manufacturing capabilities, shipping locations and already extensive product line, boosting their standing as the world leader in golf course and driving range supplies.
“This acquisition is huge for both our customers and our company” said Gene Pruban, co-founder of P&W Golf Supply. “Mine and my brother Tim’s goal since starting P&W Golf Supply in 2015 has been to provide the highest quality products and customer service to the golf industry, and this acquisition serves to increase our ability to do that. For years Southern Golf Flags has been making the best flags in the golf industry, and we’re thrilled to add that to our product line in 2020.”
Since 2015 the P&W Golf Supply umbrella of companies has continued to grow. It all began in 2015 with the purchase of Wittek Golf Supply, best known for the highest quality driving range pickers and washers in the industry. From there, P&W purchased Delta Golf, another Chicago based company, manufacturing driving range and golf course rental clubs used nationwide. In 2017, P&W Golf Supply added to its umbrella yet again, purchasing the assets of Eagle One Golf Products, a manufacturer of recycled plastic furnishings, laminated plastic signage and custom embroidered flags located just outside of Los Angeles.
This most recent acquisition of Southern Golf Flags now gives Wittek just under 100,000 square feet of manufacturing space, spread across three locations in the United States, giving their customers the quickest production and shipping times in the industry. Wittek’s Georgia location has over 100 embroidery heads, four screen printing machines and the ability to dye sublimate in-house. Wittek is in the process of integrating Southern Golf Flags into the P&W Golf Supply umbrella, and expects completion upon the new year.
