Craftsman Specialty Products Acquires “The Planter Guy” Brand, Expanding into Garden Center and Home Improvement Market

Craftsman Specialty Products, a leading Canadian manufacturer of specialty wood products and trusted outsource supplier to some of Canada’s top companies, is pleased to announce the acquisition of the ongoing operations of The Planter Guy brand.

This strategic acquisition marks Craftsman’s entry into the growing garden center and home improvement market with a strong line of specialty cedar products. The Planter Guy brand is well established for its quality assembled cedar planters, trellises, and plant stakes, making it a natural complement to Craftsman’s manufacturing expertise and reputation for innovation.

Building on The Planter Guy’s success, Craftsman plans to introduce a new Ready-to-Assemble (RTA) product line, leveraging its proven flat-pack design capabilities. The expanded offering will give retailers and online sellers a competitive edge with products that are easy to ship, store, and assemble, while maintaining the quality craftsmanship customers have come to expect.

“Acquiring The Planter Guy brand is an exciting step forward for Craftsman,” said Richard Wilson, President of Craftsman Specialty Products. “It allows us to bring our tradition of excellence in wood manufacturing into the garden and outdoor living market, while delivering innovative solutions for both retail and digital distribution channels.”

“We see this as another step aligning Craftsman’s flexible manufacturing abilities with great brands we partner with or own,” Wilson added.

The addition of The Planter Guy brand positions Craftsman Specialty Products as a versatile partner for businesses seeking dependable Canadian-made solutions across a broader range of markets. With expanded product offerings, the company is committed to serving customers with the same reliability, customization, and quality craftsmanship that have defined its reputation.
