Redmond Distributing Announces Strategic Partnership as an Independent Distributor of Johnstone Supply
Ontario, Canada – May 11, 2026
After 25 years of proudly serving the Ontario HVAC industry as a family owned and operated business, Redmond Distributing is pleased to announce a new chapter in its growth: becoming an Independent Distributor of Johnstone Supply, one of North America’s leading HVACR Distributors.
Serving the HVAC community from its two branch locations in Mississauga and Ottawa, Redmond has built its reputation on strong relationships, dependable service, and quality products across the province.
This strategic partnership marks an important milestone for Redmond, while reinforcing the company’s long standing commitment to its customers, partners, and community.
“As we celebrate 25 years in business, our focus has always been on service, relationships, and supporting the people we work with every day,” said Chris Redmond, President of Redmond Distributing “We understand the challenges our industry continues to face, and this partnership allows us to strengthen what we already do best, while bringing even more support, resources, and value to our customers and the HVAC community.”
As an Independent Distributor of Johnstone Supply, Redmond will gain access to expanded product availability, enhanced resources, digital tools, and industry leading training programs, including Johnstone University. Customers can expect a broader range of products, improved accessibility, and continued investment in education and support.
Despite this evolution, Redmond remains proudly Canadian, family owned, and independently operated. The company’s core values, personalized service, trusted relationships, and deep roots in the Ontario HVAC community, will remain unchanged.
“This is about growth with purpose,” added Chris Redmond “The industry continues to evolve, and this partnership positions us to navigate those changes while staying true to who we are. Our customers will continue to receive the same level of service and quality they’ve come to expect, just better.”
Over the coming months, Redmond will also introduce new enhancements, including online ordering capabilities, an enhanced in person customer service experience, and in person product training, further improving the overall customer experience.
At its core, Redmond’s mission remains the same: to support its customers and community with the highest level of service, expertise, and care.
