Pool Corp is the largest wholesale distributor of swimming pool supplies and equipment in the U.S. It buys from manufacturers and resells to pool builders, pool service companies, retail stores, and landscape contractors — essentially the trade professionals who build and maintain pools rather than end consumers. Products range from pumps, filters, heaters, and chemicals to irrigation supplies and outdoor living products (grills, lighting, outdoor kitchens). Revenue comes from product markups across its network of regional distribution branches, operating under several brand names including SCP and Superior Pool Products. The U.S. is the dominant market, with smaller operations in Europe and Australia.
