THE BEGINNING

Our History

In 1987, 25 year-old Joe Wheeler organized and formed the first American Construction Supply store in Idaho, located on Garrity Boulevard in Nampa.

HOW WE STARTED

Making History

The idea to start a specialized concrete construction supply business had originated with Joe’s father-in-law, Kermit Carr. With Joe’s extensive background in construction and concrete, Kermit knew Joe would be successful in starting his own business. 


The idea of selling struck Joe a little odd at first. He had no experience in sales, and therefore didn’t think he could be much of a salesman. With Kermit’s encouragement and the support of friends and family, Joe put his doubts behind him, and went ahead and opened the first store.

American Construction Supply started out with Joe and two employees. Although Joe was starting from scratch, it didn’t really take long for the business to get off of the ground.


Pleased with the success the company was seeing, Joe saw promise in growth and expanding. In the four years that followed, Joe opened three additional stores across the state: Idaho Falls, Boise, and Twin Falls. 


As of 2021, American Construction Supply & Rental proudly serves the northwest with ten locations, providing retail sales, form rentals, engineering services, and equipment sales and repair.
