National Lumber Company Acquires Fisher Lumber, Expanding Service Across Rockville and the DC Metro Area

National Lumber Company, one of the Mid-Atlantic’s oldest and most trusted family-owned building material suppliers, announced the acquisition of Fisher Lumber in Rockville, Maryland. The move expands National Lumber’s footprint in the Washington, DC metro area and reaffirms its position as a growing independent supplier.

Founded in 1919, National Lumber has been serving builders, remodelers, and contractors across Baltimore, Washington, and beyond for over a century. Following the acquisition, National will continue to serve Fisher Lumber’s longtime customers—as well as new customers—throughout the DC metro region, bringing expanded resources, delivery capabilities, and product access.

“This acquisition is about more than growth—it’s about preserving the tradition of family-owned service in our industry,” said Kevin Fruman, Co-Owner of National Lumber. “We’re proud to welcome Fisher’s team into the National family and excited to begin serving their customers.”

“National Lumber has been built over five generations on relationships, reliability, and resilience,” added Neal Fruman, Co-Owner of National Lumber. “Acquiring Fisher allows us to expand our reach while staying true to what makes us different: independence, personal service, and deep local roots.”

The Rockville location strengthens National Lumber’s ability to serve builders and remodelers across the DC metro area and marks another milestone in its growth as one of the last privately held, family-run lumber and building material suppliers in the region.

Following the acquisition, Fisher Lumber will be renamed National Lumber. National is excited to welcome Fisher’s longtime store manager, Tim Allen, along with the Fisher team, into the National family.

The transaction is expected to close October 1, 2025 with National Lumber opening for business immediately.

National Lumber has been an LMC Dealer since 2013.
