In 1989, anticipating a customer base shift from the "typical" hardware retailer to home improvement lumber yards, Wallace Distribution expanded its product lines to include lumber and building materials. Since then, this investment has evolved to 40,000 square feet of building space and five acres of LBM storage.
This move to include lumber and building materials has strengthened Wallace's market share with existing customers as well as created opportunities for new relationships. Using key building supply vendors, Wallace compliments relationships with other lumber buying groups to help dealers meet timely delivery deadlines with quality lumber yard products. Flatbed deliveries from our yard serve a 250-mile radius. The entire 13-state market area is served through full truck and carload direct shipments. Supplemented with building products delivered on our regular van fleet, dealers can count on Wallace Distribution as a viable LBM source.
