Pennsylvania window giant sells fast-growing Tampa company

High-quality and impact-resistant window and door manufacturer MITER Brands announced the sale of its NewSouth Window Solutions brand on Monday to buyer Window Nation. 

According to the Monday announcement, MITER Brands divestiture with New South Windows will will allow the company to “realign with its core business model” and invest more in its other window and door subsidiary brands, including PGT, Anlin, Milgard, Windoor, CGI, MI, and Western Window Systems. 

NewSouth Window Solutions was founded in Tampa and grew to annual sales of around $80 million in less than a decade. Then, in 2019, it was purchased by Venice-based PGT Innovations – one of the region’s biggest employers. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania-based window and door manufacturer MITER Brands acquired PGT in a $3.1 billion deal that closed in 2024.

“NewSouth is well-positioned to thrive and grow with Window Nation’s scale and expertise in the replacement window and home improvement market,” Ali Zahrieh, Senior Vice President of Strategy and M&A with MITER Brands says in the announcement. “We look forward to continuing to deliver the finest products, services, and customer experiences to Window Nation and all dealers within our network.”

Window Nation is the nation’s largest independent window replacement company, the announcement says, and its acquisition of NewSouth Window Solutions will expand the company’s Florida footprint even further.  

Founded in 2010, NewSouth Window Solutions boasts showrooms in 9 markets across Florida and South Carolina, the announcement says. The acquisition bolsters Window Nation’s strong track record of growth, having nearly doubled its footprint from 22 to 37 markets over the past two years. 

“We are excited to welcome NewSouth to the Window Nation family,” Jeff Beck, Chief Executive Officer and President of Window Nation, says in the announcement. “The acquisition accelerates our growth trajectory in the highly attractive Florida market while deepening the strong customer-supplier relationship between Window Nation and MITER Brands.”
