Our Story

Ewing Irrigation’s story begins in 1922, when Atlas Lawn Sprinkler was founded in San Francisco. In 1938, King W. Ewing joined Atlas, participating in sales and installation. He acquired the design and supply division in 1948 and renamed it Ewing Turf Products, laying the foundation for what today is one of the largest wholesale providers of professional quality landscape and irrigation materials in the United States.

In 1963, King’s daughter Sue and her husband Ray York assumed the day-to-day operations of Ewing and relocated the company headquarters to San Leandro, Calif. The company name became Ewing Irrigation Products in 1967, to reflect its transformation into a full-line irrigation supply distributor.

Joining Ray and Sue in achieving their vision, sons Doug and Richard have been involved in the development and management of the family business since 1978. In 2002, Doug was named President of Ewing and Richard was appointed Executive Vice President, establishing a third generation of Ewing/York family leadership.

Ewing Today

2012 marked 90 years of remarkable success and accomplishments for Ewing, including expanded territories and new locations, an ever-increasing product offering, advancing technologies and a growing team of caring and knowledgeable employees.

Under the direction of Doug and Richard, Ewing has grown and experienced many changes, enabling Ewing to provide customers with the best service in the industry.

Headquartered in Phoenix, Ewing locally serves customers at 188 branches in 21 states and online. We continue to be the nation’s most efficient supplier of landscape and irrigation, golf and industrial products.
