R.P. Lumber Co., Inc. is set to acquire Custer Do It Best Hardware & Lumber, an independently owned retailer of hardware, lumber, and building materials in Custer, South Dakota. The transaction is scheduled to close Friday, April 19th, and the terms of the agreement were not disclosed. Current employees will transition to the R.P. Lumber team and join nearly 1,000 R.P. Lumber team members.
This locally owned and operated full-service lumberyard has been in operation for over 89 years. Bonnie Ramer, owner of Custer Do It Best Hardware & Lumber, said “This lumberyard has been serving professional builders and DIY homeowners across the central and southern Black Hills for nearly 90 years. I was certainly not the first owner, but I truly believe R.P. Lumber is the right organization to call itself the next owner of this location.” In addition to a contractor sales department, Custer Do It Best Hardware & Lumber offers delivery, key cutting, screen repair, glass repair, and a full line of hardware and building materials. They also offer an efficient drive-through lumberyard experience for customers.
Custer Do It Best Hardware & Lumber will become R.P. Lumber’s 83rd location and its first in The Mount Rushmore State.
R.P. Lumber Co., Inc. is a family-owned, full-service retail home center and building materials supplier.
