Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
     Effective November 3, 2005, the board of directors of Industrial Distribution Group, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Charles A. Lingenfelter, 55, as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to replace Andrew B. Shearer who resigned from those positions effective on that date. Mr. Lingenfelter’s appointment represented a promotion of him from the previous executive position he has held within the Company for several years as President of the Company’s Southern region. The definitive terms of an employment agreement between Mr. Lingenfelter and the Company for his new positions have not been finalized.
     Mr. Lingenfelter was also elected by the board to serve as a director of the Company, placed in Class III of the board’s staggered three-class structure, but with his initial term to expire at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, in accordance with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, unless his election is approved at the meeting by the stockholders. If his election is so approved, Mr. Lingenfelter’s term as a Class III director would then extend to the 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders along with the existing terms of the other Class III directors. Mr. Lingenfelter will also serve as a member of the Executive Committee of the board of directors of the Company.
     A copy of the Company’s November 3, 2005 press release announcing the appointment and election of Mr. Lingenfelter and resignation of Mr. Shearer, who continues to serve his current term as a Class III director, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
