Mac
Donald & Owen Lumber Co.’s Hardwoods Done Right program offers a
high level of quality assurance and a cutting-edge delivery system
that provides mixed loads at exact specifications with consistent
shipping times and competitive prices, according to President and
CEO David Twite. “One of the greatest frustrations with hardwood
customers is getting inconsistent quality, as even the NHLA grade
rules provide some wide variation in what is allowed in each grade,”
he says. The facility keeps millions of feet of lumber pre-set in
its indoor heated warehouse for prompt shipment, Twite adds, and its
staff strives to offer good insight into rising and falling markets
so the company can partner around changing markets. Its new
LUMBERGEAR
software also gives the company a
real-time look at all inventory, customer information, yields and
product status. |
