Oct. 8, 2026 – Geismar, La. — Mid-State Supply, a Crest Industries Company, has opened a 10,500-square-foot warehouse in Ascension Parish in response to customer demand for locally available electrical and industrial supplies. The new location brings essential products closer to area businesses, improving supply chain logistics and strengthening production capabilities throughout the Capital area.  

Located at 36585 Lyle Drive, in Geismar, the new warehouse expands Mid-State’s established presence in south Louisiana. The investment responds to customers’ requests for a local supplier to help keep crews working, projects moving, and facilities operating safely.  

“When a customer needs a part to keep a crew working, the distance between that customer and our inventory matters,” said Dixie Mulhearn, business development manager at Mid-State Supply. “This location gives our team more ways to respond and customers more flexibility in how they get the supplies they need.”

The new location also creates opportunities for customers to connect with suppliers and tool manufacturers through product demonstrations and hands-on learning. Combined with Mid-State’s delivery fleet and flexible ordering options, these resources help local businesses solve problems and adapt as their operations grow.

Founded in 1958 in Alexandria, Mid-State Supply has served Louisiana businesses for nearly 70 years. It was the first business of what later became Crest Industries – a family of 8 project-oriented businesses and more than 1,300 team members serving electrical and industrial clients across the United States. The Geismar expansion builds on those Louisiana roots by investing in service capabilities closer to south Louisiana customers.

“Louisiana is seeing a boom in industrial growth and business expansion,” said Kenny Robison, owner and CEO of Crest Industries. “This new warehouse in the Capital Region helps Mid-State to continue fueling that growth and providing reliable, local solutions for our partners.”  

The Geismar warehouse will support same-day and urgent deliveries, along with local pickup, helping area businesses get needed supplies sooner and fuel the continued expansion of industry in the Capital Region.
