Trade Hounds

We’re excited to announce that Trade Hounds just acquired WRANGLD, bringing powerful new digital tools to nearly 400,000 tradespeople and contractors. For years, WRANGLD has helped contractors streamline estimates, proposals, and job management. Now, by integrating these tools into the Trade Hounds platform, we’re making it easier than ever for tradespeople to source materials, manage jobs, and get paid—all in one place. Today’s contractors juggle too many apps, websites, and manual processes. Our mission is to eliminate the inefficiencies that slow them down and help distributors better serve their customers. With WRANGLD, we’re taking a big step forward in digitizing the construction ecosystem.
