Major Augusta lighting retailer sold to Texas company

The Augusta area’s largest residential lighting retailer has been sold to a Texas manufacturer, the Augusta Chronicle reports.

Southern Lighting Gallery, on Bobby Jones Expressway, was acquired by Saylite, investment banking firm FourBridges Capital Advisors announced Monday.  

Southern Lighting’s main trade of providing lighting accessories to homebuilders wasn’t affected by the COVID-19 pandemic that struck harsh blows to other commercial sectors.
