Hughes opened a new location in Belgrade, Mont., that will supply water, sewer and storm drain products to contractors and municipalities in the local area. This is in addition to two other Hughes Supply locations in Montana, and 105 locations supplying water and sewer products in the United States.

"This is the third Hughes location that we have opened this year," commented Gradie Winstead, group president at Hughes. "Our water and sewer product group is one of our strongest areas, and this is a valuable extension in the line."

The branch is located at 5240 Jackrabbit Ln., Belgrade, MT 59714. George Whittaker is the branch manager. They can be reached at 406-388-5980.
