Our Story Founded in 1976 by Al Wachter, Acorn Distributors has since provided solutions to the education, healthcare, government, lodging, property management, and restaurant industries. We serve the Midwest from Distribution Centers in Brownsburg, IN and Columbus, OH. In 2005, Jennifer Rosenberg became the 2nd generation owner of Acorn granting us woman-owned status, allowing customers who are required to purchase from minority-owned businesses to maintain compliance. Throughout the years, Acorn has attributed its growth to dedicated employees and loyal customers.
