We are Koopman Lumber Company. The company you see today draws strength from the roots planted by Peter T. Koopman in 1939 and cultivated by him and the stalwart teams that he was able to lead for decades. Today, Pete’s grandson, Dirk, Dirk’s sister Denise and her husband Tony lead a group of over 200 employees nearly 300 employee seeking to live up to the standards set by Pete’s legacy of honesty, integrity, and unending hard work.
Koopman Lumber began in the building trade and we are always looking to build for the future. Since 2011, five locations have been added to completely cover eastern Massachusetts and reach much of New England. In three cases, multi-generation family businesses were acquired, stabilized and grown while honoring the legacies of those families. A paint store in Milford, Lampson Lumber in Hudson and most recently, Doyles Lumber in Andover were acquired. Additional locations were added in Sharon and a distribution site in Sutton to significantly expand capabilities in kitchens and millwork.
Who we are isn’t a simple question for Koopman Lumber. When you service and sell everything from engineered lumber to horse feed, it’s tough to narrow it down to one thing. One of the biggest challenges to the Koopman approach is making sure everything we do is well done and as a leader in our market. In large part this comes down to people. We work very hard at staffing our wide variety of operations with people that know their area of expertise extremely well. We then make sure they are equipped to fill customer needs with every resource available. As you learn more about Koopmans, we hope you will appreciate the dedication put forth to serve your needs and the needs of every customer. Whatever we do for contractors and builders, we always strive to be True to the Trade℠.
