Working out of his home, Leland Oliver founded Oliver Sprinkler Company in 1957 with a staff of six. The firm prospered under Leland’s leadership, quickly gaining prominent clients throughout the Philadelphia region. Over the years, all three of Leland’s sons–Bill, Dick, and Bob–joined the business and assumed positions of leadership.

 

In 1975, Oliver moved to its current location in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. In 2005, Dick Oliver’s son, David S. Oliver, assumed the reigns. Representing the third generation of family, Dave became the company’s fourth president.  David states “Grounded in the ideals set forth in 1957 by my grandfather, Leland Oliver, the company’s core mission is evident: assemble, train, and nurture an exceptional team; deliver an unsurpassed level of service; and take pride in everything we do – our name is on it.”
