Download the LBM Journal Top 100 Dealers Report

The LBM Journal 100 is an eight-page report on the state of the lumber and building material retail industry as well as a ranking of the nation’s top pro dealers and lumberyards by 2021 sales. Last year, we launched the LBM 100 in the midst of one of the building material industry’s most challenging—and intriguing—times. A year into the pandemic, dealers had spent the previous 12 months on a roller coaster of uncertainty, as they first tried to keep their businesses afloat during closures, then quickly pivoted to supplying an unexpectedly robust construction and remodeling market. The result was a list of strong numbers put forth by dealers portraying a combination of optimism, pride, perseverance, and whiplash. The top 100 dealers list includes:

  • Gross sales in 2021 compared to 2020
  • Number of locations
  • Number of employees

And the report also includes important information on:

  • Record-breaking growth
  • Labor, supply challenges
  • Online sales and e-commerce
  • Sales by customer type
  • Technology and Reinvestment
