Johnson Paint | A Ring’s End brand recently announced it will acquire Somerset Paint with locations in Swansea and North Dartmouth, Massachusetts. 

“The Somerset locations strengthen our ability to serve several great communities while enhancing our support for commercial contractors,” says Mike Burkhart, president and CEO of Ring’s End. “This expansion deepens our presence in the South Coast region and represents an important step in our long-term growth strategy, building on our legacy of delivering premium products and unmatched expertise.”

The acquisition, effective Feb. 23, 2026, will provide Johnson Paint with better access to coastal markets.

“The North Dartmouth location gives our team the space and strategic proximity needed to deliver an exceptional experience to customers we currently serve in New Bedford,” says Scott Herling, vice president of paint operations at Ring’s End. “Expanding into Swansea continues our growth along the New England coastline and enables us to better support customers in premium coastal markets across Massachusetts and Rhode Island that were previously beyond our service range.”
