Stockton, California store
EIGHTY FOUR, Pa. (Nov. 15, 2023) – 84 Lumber, the nation’s largest privately held supplier of building materials, is proud to announce their latest expansion plans with several new stores and a component plant to open in California.
The new locations, part of 84 Lumber’s growing footprint in the west, are comprised of new stores in Stockton, Lancaster, and Riverside (site of old Champion Lumber). Plans also include a truss plant in Bakersfield as well as a framing yard there. These new sites, along with already established stores in Bakersfield, Clovis, and Beaumont – will bring 84 Lumber’s presence to eight total locations in the state.
“The new stores and component plant are an example of 84 Lumber’s dedication and continued commitment to better serve our customers and communities,” said 84 Lumber COO, Frank Cicero. “I’m excited to watch these stores grow and develop over the next five years. 84 Lumber is committed to California, and we look forward to providing more opportunities for our associates in these markets.”
Jorge Espinoza, the divisional vice president for the western division, started his career with 84 Lumber in California. “Growing our business in the state of California is exciting for me because it’s where I’m from and where everything began for me at 84. The Western division of 84 is on a fantastic path of expansion,” said Espinoza.
84 Lumber will be expanding a component plant in Yuma, Arizona to service southern California as well as a store planned for Reno, Nevada and another store in the Salinas/California coastal area in the future.
84 Lumber currently operates 310 facilities which include 234 stores, 14 component manufacturing plants, 28 engineered wood product (EWP) centers and 34 door shops.
