Van Matre Lumber Co., Inc. was established in 1989 by brothers Brett and Kirk Van Matre. With their dedication to quality, service, and integrity, Van Matre Lumber Co. is now considered a leading supplier of wood products across various markets.
Long before Brett and Kirk were born, their grandfather, V. A. "Van" Van Matre, and father, William "Bill Jr." Van Matre, supplied the same industry. Van started in the lumber industry in 1920 with the Skidmore & Bowers Lumber Co., where he worked until 1936. At that time he and Lawrence Manning founded the Van Matre-Manning Lumber Co. in Downey, CA. Manning passed away in 1953, and three years later Van and his son, Bill Jr., re-opened the yard as Van Matre U-Do-It Lumber Co. The Father-Son duo ran this business until sadly, Bill Jr. passed away. Shortly after, His father sought retirement and closed the doors in 1966.
When Brett and Kirk realized they had wood fiber running through their blood, they opened Van Matre Lumber Co., Inc. twenty-three years after their Grandfather once supplied the industry. There are now two California locations that provide lumber to customers in the Western United States and beyond.
