What Anderson Process does
Anderson Process, legally A.A. Anderson & Co., Inc., is a privately held industrial fluid management solutions provider founded in 1960 and headquartered in Brookfield, Wisconsin. The company distributes more than 300,000 fluid handling products spanning centrifugal and positive displacement pumps, vacuum pumps and blowers, hose and fittings, filtration, heat exchangers, mixers and agitators, fluid sealing, and general process equipment, sourced from 50+ manufacturer brands including Wilden, Graco, Gusher Pumps, Goulds Water Technology, Blackmer, Standard Xchange, Ampco, Hy-Pro, ContiTech, Hayward Gordon, Sharpe Mixers, and Flex-A-Seal. In addition to distribution, Anderson Process designs and fabricates custom process skids (booster, filter, heating/cooling, metering, pump, and transfer skids) and offers branded Fluid Fill Systems, distinguishing it from pure catalog resellers.
The company operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct field sales with engineering consultation, manufacturer representative channels, and an e-commerce storefront at shop.andersonprocess.com. In-house fluid dynamics engineers provide pump specification and Best Efficiency Point (BEP) sizing, CAD drawing support, commissioning, and aftermarket service and repair, which the company frames as its principal differentiator versus transactional distributors. Customers span at least twelve verticals including General Industrial, Food & Beverage, Chemical Processing, Water and Wastewater, Biotech and Pharmaceutical, Oil and Gas, Automotive, Data Centers, Pulp and Paper, Power Generation, Paints and Resins, and Personal Care.
Growth has been driven primarily by acquisitions (Midwest Pump Sales, Werner-Todd Pump Company, and American Controls), taking the business from a single Wisconsin location to a national footprint. Under CEO Greg Domino and President Ryan Domino (named 2025), the company reported record FY2025 revenue of approximately $100 million, representing a twelvefold increase since 2003, and has stated an intent to double the business within five years through continued M&A and AI-driven internal efficiency improvements. The company is privately held under family management with no disclosed venture capital or private equity backing.

Product overview
Anderson Process is an industrial fluid management solutions provider offering a comprehensive portfolio of fluid process equipment, integration services, and value-added support. The company distributes over 300,000 fluid management products from leading manufacturers across two primary categories: industrial equipment (Pumps, Vacuum Pumps & Blowers, Hose & Fittings, Filtration, Heat Exchangers, Mixers & Agitators, Fluid Sealing, General Process Equipment, Custom Skids & Fabrication, Fluid Fill Systems, and Wastewater Screens) and engineering services (Aftermarket Service & Repair, Commissioning, Control Panels, Custom Fabrication, Engineering/CAD Support, Hose Tracking, Inventory Management, and Training). The product portfolio includes centrifugal and positive displacement pumps in various configurations (ANSI, API, sanitary, sealless, magnetic drive, multistage, etc.), along with complementary process equipment. Anderson Process operates as a solutions integrator, combining its extensive equipment catalog with hands-on engineering consultation to deliver tailored fluid-handling solutions rather than simply supplying off-the-shelf products.

Anderson Process competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- W.W. Grainger: Largest US industrial MRO distributor with comprehensive catalog, digital procurement platform, and national logistics — primary competitive threat on transactional pump and hose sales.
- Applied Industrial Technologies: Large public industrial distributor with significant fluid power and motion control exposure; offers broader MRO scale and digital procurement capabilities than Anderson Process.
- MSC Industrial Direct: National metalworking and MRO industrial distributor with extensive e-commerce and procurement technology — competes on transactional hardware and broad-line industrial supply.
- Motion Industries: Industrial parts distributor (a Genuine Parts Company subsidiary) with fluid power and bearings expertise; competes across many of Anderson Process's product categories.
- Fastenal: National industrial supplies distributor with strong digital and on-site vending presence — competes on consumables, fasteners, and select fluid handling categories.
- Xylem (Bell & Gossett): Global water technology company owning Goulds Water Technology (one of Anderson Process's key partners) — illustrates vertical integration risk where manufacturers develop direct service capabilities.
Direct peers
- DXP Enterprises: Public industrial distributor specializing in pumps, rotating equipment, and fluid handling — the closest publicly traded comparable for Anderson Process's core pump distribution and service business.
