JUST LEASED: 732 Lakeside Dr in Mobile AL

Delivering More Than Paint

Mike Reid, Director of Brokerage, Merrill P Thomas Co., Inc represented the Landlord in the leasing of this 4,636 sq ft property with a showroom, office, and warehouse to NCS SSI.  In 2006, O. Temple Sloan Jr. and a group of experienced leaders founded National Coatings & Supplies (NCS) with a clear mission: to focus on the evolving needs of the collision repair industry. Building on over four decades of success with General Parts Inc. (GPI)/Carquest—guided by the values of people, passion, performance, and customer care—the team set out to create a new kind of distribution company.

What began with 17 stores has grown into a national network. The merger with Single Source Inc. (SSI) in 2016 and the addition of their 200th store in 2024-mark key milestones on a journey defined by smart growth and strategic partnerships. Today, NCS | SSI operates in 43 states and remains proudly family and management owned.  They serve a diverse clientele of over 15,000 businesses, spanning body shops, aircraft maintenance companies, boat manufacturers, and beyond.

NCS | SSI has always embraced innovation and opportunity. As their footprint expanded, so did their ability to serve new markets—including the industrial coatings sector. From oil and gas equipment to agricultural machinery, trailers, commercial vehicles, aerospace, and defense—their customers trust them to deliver reliable solutions for the toughest jobs.

“We’re more than a paint and supply distributor. Through ongoing collaboration with customers, we deliver tailored solutions, industry insight, and unparalleled service. At NCS | SSI, we’re driven by results, dedicated to relationships, and committed to one goal: Delivering More Than Paint”.
