Walter Morris Co., a manufacturers' representative firm serving plumbing, heating, refrigeration, water filtration, kitchen/bath and decor trades throughout eastern New England, commemorates its centennial year in 2022. Morris kicks off its Centennial at the Massachusetts PHCC Event in Marlborough Massachusetts on March 5, 2022.
In 1922, Walter Morris opened his water heater distribution company on Broad Street near the Boston waterfront, where he thrived until the start of WWII. Despite wartime material shortages, fierce competition from numerous manufacturers in the post-war building industry, and ownership changes in the early 2000’s, Walter Morris Company maintained its commitment to support the plumbing, heating, refrigeration and water filtration trades, thus growing into one of the most respected manufacturing representatives in New England.
