Ewing-Foley Forms Strategic Joint Venture with Hodges Southwest

CUPERTINO, Calif. – Ewing-Foley Inc. (EFI) has been named as the representative for Condumex in its Southwest, Northwest, and Mountain Regions. As part of the announcement, Hodges Southwest (HSW), a long established Condumex agent servicing the Texas and Oklahoma markets, will join forces with EFI under a separate joint venture structure.

These announcements are expected to drive significant growth for all parties. Under the JV agreement, EFI will acquire select line and personnel assets from HSW to bolster its market presence and expand its solution offerings in the TX/OK Market. EFI will also provide its back-end sales, marketing, and business systems to streamline HSW’s operations—facilitating smoother product fulfillment, order management, and customer service. Meanwhile, HSW will continue to offer warehousing and sales consulting services, leveraging its existing relationships and logistical expertise to maintain efficient processes and deliver superior customer support throughout the sales cycle. Mike McCollum, VP and Managing Partner at EFI, will oversee the joint venture and Condumex integration activities.

“We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Condumex in the Western US,” said Gary Lessing, CEO of EFI. “ We are equally pleased to be able to leverage Hodges’ 25-year experience with selling and providing logistics support for Condumex in the Texas and Oklahoma markets. This, coupled with our existing in-territory wire and cable resources, will give us a rapid start in supporting Condumex’s U.S. expansion efforts.”

“Joining forces with EFI will take Hodges to an entirely new level of reach and impact,” said Tommy Hodges, Founder and CEO of Hodges SW. “By leveraging EFI’s existing sales systems infrastructure—and continuing to provide warehousing and sales consulting services—we’ll be able to offer our clients faster, broader, and more efficient solutions.”

“It’s exceptionally rare to find an agency of EFI’s caliber become available—one that spans such a vast portion of the U.S. market and brings a highly trained wire and cable sales force under one roof,” stated Alex Sanchez, President of Condumex. “Our ownership recognized this unique opportunity and seized it eagerly. We couldn’t be more excited to forge this new partnership.”
