Outdoor Living Supply Acquires Geobunga

Offering a Better Way to Grow.

Outdoor Living Supply (“OLS”), a distribution platform for outdoor living products with a focus on hardscapes, announced today the acquisition of Geobunga (“the Company”), an independent distributor of garden elements, natural stone, pavers, bulk materials, and landscape supplies. This acquisition expands OLS’ footprint into the Hawaiian market.

Based in Honolulu, Hawaii, Geobunga was started in 2009 by Layla and Andrew Dedrick, previous owners of Bella Pietra, a stone and tile import, who saw opportunity in an underserved urban gardening market. Since that time, Geobunga has grown into Hawaii’s leading outdoor living resource for homeowners, contractors, and landscape designers. Going forward, Layla and Andrew will continue in their leadership roles, ensuring continuity and consistency for customer and supplier partners.

“We are excited to welcome Geobunga to the OLS family of companies,” said Brian Price, CEO of OLS. “The Geobunga acquisition provides us with a strong entry into the Hawaiian market. Layla and Andrew have built an outstanding business that combines stellar customer service and product innovation with operational integrity. We look forward to growing with this talented team for years to come."

Layla and Andrew Dedrick, owners of Geobunga added, “Our business embodies the authentic and tropical feel of Hawaii, as well as our commitment to serving the community with excellent customer service and hospitality. We immediately recognized that OLS would celebrate the unique attributes of our brand and that our partnership would provide exceptional value to our customers and excellent opportunities to our employees. It is with great excitement that we kick off this next phase of growth for Geobunga.”

Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP served as legal advisor to OLS.
