Team Air Distributing, a Kian Capital-backed wholesale distributor of HVAC equipment, has achieved significant expansion milestones and received its eighth Pinnacle Performance Award from Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT). The company launched three new branches in Northern Georgia and Metro Atlanta in January, with plans to open three more locations in June 2024.

The expansion will increase Team Air's presence to 14 branch locations, with an additional four planned for 2025, bringing the total to 18 branches plus its Nashville corporate facility. The company is also extending its Tennessee footprint with a new Tri-Cities branch opening in June. This growth follows Team Air's acquisition of Best Choice Supply and new Georgia territory rights from American Standard in fall 2024.

Notably, five of Team Air's territory managers were recognized among the top 10 sales representatives in the U.S. The company is actively seeking partnerships with founders in wholesale residential and commercial equipment, parts, and supplies sectors.
