The company operates a manufacturing-fabrication facility and has an integrated wholesale distribution division. General metals has two Phoenix area locations and one in Tuscon. 

“Winsupply deeply admires the company’s excellent 72-year reputation and impressive track record of growth,” said Jeff Dice, president of Winsupply. “Winsupply looks forward to investing in General Metals and expanding in the Phoenix market.” 

A June 10 news release noted that General Metals President Richard Goettel will continue with the company in a consulting role and will transition leadership to Anthony Jackson, who will relocate from Prescott Winsupply after serving as President there for the past four years. Meanwhile, 21-year General Metals veteran Michael Goettel will continue with the company as Vice President of Fabrications.
