In move to expand its presence in the western U.S., 84 Lumber
announced two new locations in Colorado, with plans for two
more.
The company opened an 18,324-square-foot store north of Denver
in Greeley, CO. The new store, which includes a lumberyard, sits
on 9.8 total acres and has seven acres of rail service. The new
lumberyard in Greeley will pair with the distributor’s existing
6.8-acre, full-service lumberyard in Denver servicing the metro
region, the southern Denver area and northern Colorado. This
location will stock core homebuilding materials – similar to the
Denver lumberyard’s inventory and services.
In addition, 84 Lumber has opened a state-of-the-art,
59,400-square-foot component plant in Fort Collins, CO, to
expand the company’s capacity to service customers in the market
with custom-engineered trusses.
84 Lumber is also working on opening another component plant in
Fort Lupton, as well as a store in Colorado Springs.
“The four Colorado locations are designed to work in
conjunction, allowing 84 Lumber to offer a comprehensive range
of products and services, from basic building materials to
specialized engineered wood products, custom doors, and now,
precision-manufactured trusses,” said 84 Lumber’s Divisional
Vice President Jorge Espinoza in an April 29 news release.
Espinoza oversees all stores in the western United States,
including all Colorado facilities.
The new store and component plant join other locations that 84
Lumber has established in the last two years to serve the Denver
market, including an 84,000-square-foot door shop in Commerce
City that opened in November 2023 to supply doors for
contractors and homebuilders across the region.
Elsewhere in the state, 84 Lumber has been operating a store in
Grand Junction, Colorado, since 1979.
The company operates more than 320 facilities in 34 states, and
ranked 7th on MDM’s 2024 Top Building Materials/Construction
Distributors List.
