Your Building Centers Acquires Palmerton Lumber Company

Your Building Centers (“YBC”) has acquired Palmerton Lumber Company located in Palmerton, Pa., Carbon County, which is a full-time lumber and building material provider serving the Palmerton and the surrounding communities. The acquisition is the third in four years for YBC, allowing more Pennsylvania residents to benefit from being an Employee Owner and allowing YBC to grow in the Pennsylvania market.

“We are excited to have Palmerton Lumber Company and the Palmerton Lumber staff join the YBC team! We are just as excited to grow our footprint into eastern Pennsylvania to service contractors and homeowners alike in Palmerton and the surrounding communities with all of their building & remodeling needs” said Rich Lender, President/CEO of Your Building Centers.

Palmerton Lumber was founded in 1995 by Andy Pisulak who passed away unexpectedly on January 20, 2021. Steven Pisulak, Andy’s son, said that YBC is a great fit for Palmerton Lumber and for the employees of Palmerton Lumber. He knows that his father would be very proud knowing that the YBC acquisition of Palmerton Lumber has been completed.
