History

Southern Pump & Tank Company began operations in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1935 as a distributor and installer of petroleum equipment. The company quickly expanded into other cities in North and South Carolina and eventually Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Virginia. Recognizing the value of its franchise and its dominant market share in petroleum handling equipment, the Company entered the industrial pump distribution business in the late 1960's concentrating in North and South Carolina and Eastern Tennessee.

With the new millennium, Southern Pump & Tank continued its leadership position in liquid handling, adding the Car Wash Division and completing a dominant offering of quality products, turnkey services, and exceptionally experienced people.
