ProBuild Holdings, Denver, CO, a upplier of building materials to professional contractors, expanded its presence in Illinois by opening a new location outside Chicago and taking lease positions on two other locations in the area.
The new 23-acre facility located in Hampshire, IL, features a full service lumberyard as well as truss and wall panel manufacturing capabilities. The Hampshire facility will serve both residential and commercial contractors and supports ProBuild’s strategy to aggressively build out its national footprint by enhancing existing market coverage to better service its customers.
"Chicago is an important market in ProBuild’s overall business strategy," says Lonnie Bernardoni, senior vice president, Manufacturing. "This new location provides superior positioning to better service our customers in the region. It is an excellent facility that strengthens our access to key markets."
The two other facilities are located in Elgin and Chicago.
All three facilities were formerly operated by Stock Building Supply, according to ProSales Online.
