Heating Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International

About This Association

Wholesaling matured at different times for different types of merchandise in North America. Food and apparel wholesalers were well established in the 19th century. However, today’s mechanical products were not possible until the development of the small electric motor in the early part of the 20th century. The market for refrigerators began in the 1920s and in the early 1930s for store display cases – hence the emergence of the Refrigeration Parts Association in 1935, which in 1958 became the Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Wholesalers (ARW).
