Thirteen-unit Bliffert Lumber & Hardware, Milwaukee, Wi., has acquired Madison area Chase Lumber and its three locations in Sun Prairie, DeForest and McFarland, WI.
Chase Lumber has been serving South Central Wisconsin and the surrounding area since 1897 specializing in lumber, millwork, windows, cabinets, decking, kitchens and baths.
“Joining forces with Bliffert and combining nearly two-and-a-half centuries of serving the building industry in Wisconsin is a giant step forward for Chase Lumber’s customers and employees,” said Chase Lumber president Valerie Stiener. “We know that Bliffert is a company that shares our values, especially concerning employees, customers, and community. We believe Bliffert Lumber does that and more. A large firm that operates as a family-run business, Bliffert brings buying power and expertise that should allow Chase Lumber to operate as a premier supplier of building materials for many years to come.”
“At Bliffert Lumber & Hardware, we are continually improving on the construction and home improvement experience for our customers across Wisconsin,” said VP Eli Bliffert. “Chase Lumber Co. shares our focus on excellent service and commitment to staff and community. Adding these locations will provide our Madison area customers with an improved range of services, products, and support. Being able to combine two fifth generation family-owned lumber companies is not something you get to do every day, if ever. It is the coolest thing since cold beer. We are absolutely stronger together.”
