Palmer-Donavin adds EWP products in Midwest
Palmer-Donavin announced that its distribution center in Grove City, Ohio will now distribute RigidLam LVL and RFPI Joist products to customers in the state.
The building products distributor, with 13 locations in the Midwest and Southeast, now offers design services, sales support, and developed special trucking with dedicated delivery routes to support the new category.
This latest move from Palmer-Donavin also includes an expanded partnership with Roseburg Forest Products, the Springfield, Oregon-based building materials and lumber producer.
“Engineered Wood Products (EWP) is a growing category, and we are excited to be a part of it,” shared Josh Thompson, vice president of product management at Palmer-Donavin. “Our Roseburg partnership came from our recent acquisition of Diamond Hill Plywood.”
Thompson added, “While we distribute EWP from our five locations in the Southeast, we are happy to share Roseburg RigidLam LVL and RFPI Joist products are now available in our Grove City, Ohio distribution facility to serve dealers in the state of Ohio.”
“Roseburg is very excited for the partnership with Palmer-Donavin,” shared Jerry Eidson, sales manager at Roseburg. “We are thrilled that Palmer-Donavin chose Roseburg EWP, and we are looking forward to expanding into new territories in the north with this top-tier distributor.”
Along with distributing building materials, Grove City-based Palmer-Donavin maintains door fabrication operations.
Brad Smith, EWP sales manager at Palmer-Donavin, said, “This category and Roseburg Forest products are perfect for Palmer-Donavin as it pairs well with our customer-focused, high-service business model. We are excited to offer EWP to our customer base and look forward to setting the standard in our new adventure.”
