General Plumbing Supply moved from its original location to Ave C in Bayonne. Current CEO Bruce Tucker became involved in the business in the 1970's and moved General Plumbing Supply to Kennedy Blvd. where the first inside sales and showroom model for GPS came into existence. "Groundbreaking at the time," this facility housed a real distribution center, inside sales, and material handling. This move modernized the family company and readied them for the next century. General Plumbing Supply's second location in Morris Plains opened in the early 1980's. This second location also included inside sales, counter assistance, and showroom. VUE ON | DESIGN 58 VUENJ.COM
