Regional Building Materials Supplier | $10M Revenue | Absentee Owner
Business Description
This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, long-established independent supplier of lumber, building materials, hardware, and contractor supplies serving a broad regional market in the Southeastern United States.
The company generated fiscal 2025 revenue of approximately $10.4 million, seller’s discretionary earnings of approximately $1.78 million, and EBITDA of approximately $1.31 million. Revenue increased approximately 9% during fiscal 2025, while gross margin improved to approximately 35%.
The business is virtually absentee-owned. An experienced management team and stable workforce oversee day-to-day operations with very little owner supervision. Several key employees have been with the company for more than 20 years, providing valuable continuity, industry knowledge, and established customer and vendor relationships.
Approximately 87% of revenue is generated from contractor customers, including residential, commercial, agricultural, remodeling, and industrial accounts. Approximately 87% of sales come from repeat customers, and the largest customer represents no more than 5% of total sales.
Investment highlights include:
• More than 75 years of successful operating history
• Approximately $10.4 million in fiscal 2025 revenue
• Approximately $1.78 million in fiscal 2025 cash flow
• Virtually absentee ownership
• Experienced management and long-tenured workforce
• Diversified customer base with limited concentration
• Strong contractor and vendor relationships
• Efficient inventory management and strong inventory turns
• Attractive regional distribution capabilities
• Significant opportunities for continued expansion
The company represents an attractive acquisition platform for an existing lumber and building materials operator seeking geographic expansion, increased regional density, or entry into underserved construction markets. It may also appeal to a qualified financial buyer seeking an established company with strong cash flow and management already in place.
The asking price is $8,500,000 plus inventory. Furniture, fixtures, vehicles, forklifts, delivery equipment, and other operating assets with an original cost of approximately $826,000 are included in the asking price. The real estate is available separately for lease or purchase.
The identity of the business and its confidential information will be provided only to qualified prospective buyers who execute a nondisclosure agreement and provide evidence of financial capability. Employees, customers, and vendors are not aware that the business is being offered for sale. Please do not attempt to identify or contact the business directly.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 77
- Employees
- 15 Full-time
- Facilities & Assets
- The business operates from an approximately 3.75-acre property with approximately 9,330 square feet of storage space. The location provides convenient access to major transportation corridors and supports efficient service throughout a multi-state regional market.
The real estate is not included in the business asking price. It is available separately for lease or purchase, subject to mutually acceptable terms. - Market Outlook / Competition
- The company competes through its long-established reputation, knowledgeable employees, responsive customer service, product expertise, strong vendor relationships, and ability to serve contractors efficiently.
The customer base is highly diversified, with no customer representing more than approximately 5% of annual sales. Approximately 87% of sales are generated by repeat customers. Gross margins have improved due in part to superior service, established vendor relationships, market knowledge, and changes in the regional competitive landscape. - Opportunities for Growth
- The company offers several avenues for continued growth. A strategic buyer could use the operation as a platform for expansion into additional Southeastern markets, add complementary products and services, increase outside-sales coverage, pursue additional contractor and commercial accounts, and leverage existing vendor relationships and distribution capabilities.
The current owners devote very little time to daily operations. A more actively involved owner or strategic acquirer may identify additional opportunities to expand sales, improve purchasing leverage, strengthen marketing, and develop additional locations throughout the region.
