The company serves professional flooring contractors and flooring retailers across the Mid-South region (Tennessee and Arkansas), explicitly excluding direct-to-public sales.

The company sources from 20+ branded suppliers including Somerset, Robinson Lumber, Bona, 3M, Norton, DuraSeal, Powernail, Bostitch, and Lagler.

The business is structured around three revenue streams: (1) bulk wholesale distribution of flooring products to contractors and retailers, (2) tool rental services for sanders, edgers, buffers, staplers, nailers, and compressors, and (3) in-house tool repair services performed by a dedicated technician. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is executed through direct branch pickup at the two physical locations and free job-site delivery to contractor work sites, with operations running Monday-Friday 7:00AM to 4:00PM. The company employs approximately 16 staff across administration, sales, purchasing, accounts receivable, warehouse, delivery, and customer service functions. Digital presence is limited to an informational WordPress website; no proprietary software platform, mobile application, or API exists.

The Greer Company is independently operated with no disclosed external investors, parent company, or private equity sponsorship. No revenue figure, founding date, or ownership change history is publicly available. There are no announced acquisitions, funding rounds, or major strategic transactions in the source data; the company is presented as a stable, mature regional distributor operating at a consistent scale.
