Oldham Chemicals

What Oldham Chemicals does

Oldham Chemical Company, Inc. is a privately held, B2B specialty distributor founded in 1966 and headquartered at 3701 New Getwell Road in Memphis, Tennessee. The company sells pest control chemicals, application equipment, bait stations, rodenticides, traps, and related supplies to Pest Management Professionals (PMPs) and wildlife control operators, operating under the long-standing motto "Everything for the Pest Control Industry." Its catalog spans major manufacturer brands including Bell Laboratories (Protecta EVO Express, FINAL All-Weather BLOX), FMC (Talstar Professional), Syngenta (Demand CS, Trelona ATBS), BASF (PT Alpine), Liphatech (Aegis, Selontra), Nisus (Niban), Pestool (PestBlaster), and Insect-O-Cutor (Aura), covering insecticides, rodenticides, granular baits, smart bait stations, dusters, sprayers, and fly-control equipment. The company does not manufacture its own products; rather, it functions as an authorized regional reseller with a stated policy of sourcing any item not in current inventory for the customer.

Oldham distributes through 14 branch offices across the southeastern and lower midwestern United States — Memphis (HQ), Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Jackson, Knoxville, Little Rock, Louisville, Martinez (GA), Metairie, Mobile, Nashville, Scott (LA), Springfield (MO), and St. Louis — enabling local pickup, regional delivery, and in-person account service. Order capture runs through three parallel channels: a login-gated B2B e-commerce portal (nopCommerce-based) that exposes contract pricing to registered accounts, a centralized phone/email order desk (800-888-5502 / [email protected]), and direct account management. Pricing is quote-based and tiered: registered PMP customers access account-specific contract pricing through the "My Products" portal, while public list pricing on the website serves only as reference.

Commercially, Oldham has pursued modest ecosystem extension beyond commodity distribution, most notably through a 2018-2019 partnership with PestFleet to launch the "One-Stop Truck Shop" program bundling four suppliers into a turnkey vehicle purchasing and fleet management offering for PMPs (a move led by Tommy Reeves, VP). The company carries no disclosed funding rounds, no parent company, no M&A activity, no executive team disclosures, and no AI/ML capabilities; its technology footprint is limited to standard transactional e-commerce infrastructure and the resale of third-party products, including a small number of connected/IoT-adjacent SKUs such as the Protecta EVO Express iQ smart bait station.
