About Crescent & Sprague
One of Marietta's longest operating, locally owned businesses, Crescent & Sprague Supply Co. is proud to have provided more than 100 years of dedicated service to its customers throughout the Ohio Valley.Founded in 1896, the Crescent Supply Company was originally a manufacturer of high-grade motor oils and lubricants, located in the Harmar area of Marietta. After the 1913 flood, the company relocated to its present location at the corner of Greene and Acme streets, and at the same time, expanded its wholesale offerings to plumbing products and hardware. To this day, Crescent serves these needs for customers within a 150-mile radius.In 1987 Crescent Supply merged with B.S.
