Imperial Sprinkler Supply

What Imperial Sprinkler Supply does

Imperial Sprinkler Supply, now operating as Heritage Landscape Supply under Heritage Landscape Supply Group, is a B2B distributor of landscape, irrigation, and agronomic products serving green industry professionals across California. The company offers access to over 40,000 SKUs from trusted manufacturers across six core categories: agronomics, irrigation, landscape supply, lighting, fencing, and hardscapes, complemented by specialty sub-brands including Heritage Artificial Turf (H.A.T.) and Heritage Professional Products Group. Distribution is delivered through a network of physical branches statewide, a fleet of nearly 4,000 vehicles executing 2.5 million orders per year, and the proprietary Heritage+ digital platform with iOS and Android mobile apps that provide real-time pricing, inventory visibility, and account management.

The technology stack centers on three proprietary platforms: Heritage+ for 24/7 e-commerce and account management, GRIDS (Heritage Commercial Services) for irrigation, drainage, and lighting project planning with takeoffs and real-time collaboration, and the Bill Trust online billing system for invoice and payment management. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the company extends credit terms to established professional accounts while accepting cash on delivery for non-account customers. Target customers include professional landscape contractors and maintenance providers as the primary segment, with secondary segments comprising municipalities, golf course superintendents, and sports field managers.

The business model is distribution-led with revenue generated through one-time product sales rather than subscriptions or licensing. The company was originally founded in the 1960s and has since been acquired and rebranded as part of Heritage Landscape Supply Group, a privately held national distribution conglomerate headquartered in McKinney, Texas. Imperial Sprinkler Supply / Heritage Landscape Supply California represents the California regional operations of that group, leveraging the parent's nationwide network while retaining local branch-level service and customer relationships.
