Prudential Overall Supply, Irvine, California, recently celebrated its 89th anniversary. The family owned and operated company has made remarkable progress as a one-man business since it was founded in 1932 by John D Clark. Today Prudential is a nationally active industrial operator serving around 28,000 customers from coast to coast.
Last year, Clark's grandson, also known as John Clark, succeeded his father, Dan Clark, as CEO. Dan continues to serve as the company's chairman. The younger Clark says he is grateful to many people in the industry who helped Prudential grow over the past year despite the Covid-19 pandemic.

Clark added: "We thank every supplier for their reliability, every customer for the trust they have in Prudential, and we are grateful to every employee for their hard work and dedication in providing the best possible service to our customers."
