About SupplySolution

Supply Solutions is a full-line distributor of janitorial supplies, packaging supplies, food service products, and office products. Founded in 2006 by Jeffrey Lerma, who serves as the President and CEO, the company started from a cargo van and a garage. Lerma began the venture by personally handling product loading and deliveries after spending two years in sales at a large distributorship.

The company has experienced consistent growth, relocating five times to accommodate the need for more warehouse space and expanding its operations into Texas and Arizona. Today, Supply Solutions operates its own fleet of trucks and serves regions including Southern California, Phoenix, Houston, and Dallas. It is a certified minority-owned business enterprise. In December 2023, Supply Solutions acquired Veteran Building Maintenance & Supply Inc. (VBM), a janitorial and sanitation distributor founded by Jose Diaz in 2017. This acquisition made Supply Solutions the largest minority-owned janitorial/sanitation distributor in California. Following the acquisition, Diaz became the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Supply Solutions.

The business model focuses on creating custom supply programs for a range of clients, from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies. The company offers a comprehensive ordering platform and provides nationwide delivery. Its product categories include chemicals, cleaning supplies, liners, matting, paper products, restroom supplies, and food service items.
