In 1901, a 20-year-old Russian entrepreneur named Louis Davidson boarded a ship bound for America. Louis had hoped to sail into New York Harbor, but he could find passage only aboard a vessel bound for Mobile, Alabama. That was still America, the land of opportunity, so he took it. Undeterred, he tried his hand at a number of enterprises.
In 1918, he opened a scrap-metal business and finally found his niche. The name of his new company reflected his ambitions of expanding beyond Mississippi: the St. Louis Junk Company. Louis's sons, Meyer and Sammie, joined the business in 1930, and in 1938, the company sold its first carload of steel pipe.
Within a year, the focus of the business shifted to plumbing supply, and the name changed to Southern Pipe & Supply Company. Meyer and Sammie weren't business-school graduates or corporate managers, and they only knew one way to operate a business: family style. They treated both customers and employees with respect and affection-a spirit that lives on today at Southern Pipe & Supply.

Had a blue or on my truck, walked in simply to ask if the man had a jack I could use to change the tire... He was unbelievably rude!!! If it was me, I would have went out of my way to help, I will never shop here, ever again... In the past I done over 6 years of shopping with this place. A bad employees attitude makes the business look VERY BAD!!!

Southern Pipe & Supply had 2 elements for our hot water heater in stock Monday morning. I had previously been told that nobody in town carried them and was going to have to wait days to get them shipped. Or, spend over $1,000 on a new tank. Equally important to me, real men without idiotic face diapers work there! I will use them in the future for all my plumbing supplies.
