Bliffert Lumber Merges with Jauquet Lumber Co. Inc. in Strategic Expansion
Bliffert Lumber Company, a sixth-generation family-owned business based in Milwaukee, has formally announced its merger with the longstanding Jauquet Lumber Co. Inc., a reputable family-operated enterprise serving Northeast Wisconsin since its inception in 1905. This strategic merger, finalized on June 30, 2025, marks a significant milestone for both companies and enhances Bliffert Lumber’s footprint in the region.
Jauquet Lumber has cultivated a robust reputation over the past 120 years, under the stewardship of third-generation owners Jim and Joe Jauquet. Known for their exceptional customer service and high-quality building materials, they have fostered strong relationships with their clients and become a respected member of the Green Bay community. Jim Jauquet emphasized the benefits of joining Bliffert Lumber: “We believe joining the Bliffert family allows us to continue our tradition of outstanding service while positioning us to grow for generations to come. We are very similar in how we do business,” he stated.
Bliffert Lumber, now expanding its reach into the Green Bay area, echoes similar values of customer commitment and community engagement. Eli Bliffert, the fifth-generation owner, expressed enthusiasm about the merger, stating, “Nothing makes me happier than welcoming strong, independent lumberyards like Jauquet into our family. We’re thrilled to expand into new communities with the same passion and commitment we bring to all of our locations. We are absolutely stronger together.”
This merger is not just a business consolidation; it represents a collaboration rooted in shared values and a mutual commitment to quality service. Bliffert Lumber has been a cornerstone in the Wisconsin construction industry since 1904, providing materials for a wide array of projects, from residential homes to major commercial developments, including stadiums and hospitals. The company prides itself on its ability to cater to contractors, builders, and homeowners while maintaining a focus on personal service and strong local relationships.
With fifteen locations across Wisconsin and a commitment to family ownership, Bliffert Lumber’s merger with Jauquet Lumber is poised to enhance their service offerings and meet the increasing demand for high-quality building materials in the region. This partnership highlights a broader trend in the building materials industry where local businesses seek collaboration to leverage resources and expertise while maintaining their core values of community service and customer dedication.
As the construction landscape evolves, this merger sets a precedent for future partnerships aimed at bolstering local economies and reinforcing the importance of community engagement within the timber and building supply sector. The coming years will reveal how this collaboration unfolds, but both companies are optimistic about the shared opportunities for growth and enhanced service delivery to their valued clients.
