Since its inception in September 2001, Lubker Distribution, a Carrlu Company has been owned and operated as a partnership between Rick Lubker and Jim Carrigan.

The goal at retirement remained the same for Jim as it did on day one, to ensure the ultimate success of the company.
Following significant restructuring that included new personnel hires, and existing personnel reassignments and promotions, the company proved its readiness in early 2024. The transactional necessities proceeded smoothly; the ownership change commencing February 2024.
In concert with the change, the corporate name has been updated to reflect current ownership, now known solely as Lubker Distribution, Inc.
