Mitchell Distributing has recently signed an agreement to purchase the assets of Delta Distributing Company. DDC is currently in Greenwood and covers Yalobusha, Grenada, Montgomery, Carroll, and Leflore counties. This is an exciting move for Mitchell Distributing as it is a strategic growth opportunity that unites their Mitchell Delta territory with the rest of our Mitchell Distributing territory. Mitchell Distributing has enjoyed working in the Delta since 2002 and they look forward to expanding to cover these new markets and serving the great people of these communities. This addition will bring their total counties serviced in Mississippi to 32.
“This is the type of strategic growth that our company is looking for,” said Mitchell Distributing president, Adam Mitchell. “We are excited to leverage the skills of the personnel that we have in place, as well as add to the talent of our team with the strong personnel at Delta Distributing Company and the Hargrove family.” The Hargrove family, the current owners of DDC, will continue to work with Mitchell Distributing as they undergo this change to ensure a smooth and seamless transition. Hank and James Hargrove will stay on full-time with Mitchell Delta Distributing.
