The Granite Group announces new propane division

May 6, 2016 – Concord, NH – The Granite Group announced today that they have launched a new division focused on Propane Gas Products and Accessories.

“The propane business is a natural fit for The Granite Group. We already service Propane customers with equipment and we have excellent people that do an extraordinary job in moving material. Partnering with the best in class manufacturers will only solidify our position and our 33 stores and 48 salespeople in all New England states and will give us a presence unprecedented in the industry. We look forward to serving this market entirely and are very excited about the reception from the customers who have demanded more.” says Stephen Murphy, The Granite Group’s Director of Propane Sales

Beginning this month, The Granite Group will begin receiving and delivering Propane Tanks and Cylinders from Trinity Containers as well as LPG Valve and Tank Equipment from the Cavagna Group. Both companies feature best-in-class product offerings and are excited about their new partnerships with The Granite Group.

“Both Cavagna and The Granite Group share the same values that are unique to family owned companies; integrity, accountability, innovation, and a drive to lead the market with new ideas and products. The Granite Group’s focus on providing personalized service to help build their customers’ sales in a changing market collaborates well with Cavagna’s own philosophy. We have confidence that The Granite Group’s professional sales force, solid operation, and experience in inventory management paired with the Cavagna’s quality manufacturing will provide great opportunities for the LP trade in New England.”says Peter Dwyer, LPG Sales Manager, Cavagna North America

“Trinity Containers is extremely pleased with our decision to team up with The Granite Group. We think The Granite Group, together with Trinity, represents the best opportunity to provide unmatched service to the New England propane market.” says Brent T. Baty, Director, Sales & Marketing, Trinity Containers

Murphy is also excited about the new partnerships and believes The Granite Group is the perfect company to help everyone involved benefit.“The Granite Group has scale that appeals to our customers and manufacturer’s. We look at the changing marketplace and feel that we can offer the material benefits of a large distributor but with a concentrated focus that seems to fit with Propane dealers. We listen to our customers, and this model really fits their needs. We look forward to truly partnering with them in every way.”
