Nationwide wire and cable distributor with 22 warehouses and same-day shipping
Priority Wire & Cable operates a high-volume distribution network across 22 U.S. and Canadian warehouses, holding over $500M in inventory and shipping same-day on orders received by 3 PM local time. The tech stack is enterprise-heavy (Oracle, SAP, NetSuite) but heavily siloed—the company is actively migrating identity infrastructure to cloud and modernizing Microsoft 365, signaling IT consolidation efforts. The hiring surge is operations and logistics-focused (35 of 49 open roles), reflecting pressure to accelerate fulfillment velocity while managing outstanding accounts and cash flow.
