Family-owned and operated from the outset, Jackson Lumber & Millwork( Jackson Lumber) supplies contractors, remodelers, and homeowners throughout Eastern Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Southern Maine with high-quality building materials, millwork, and supplies at competitive prices. For 80 years, the company has consistently provided exceptional quality and customer service, embracing innovation and the most advanced resources available in the building industry. Today, Jackson Lumber remains committed to delivering the same cutting-edge service its customers have come to expect, with a dedicated team of trained professionals ready to fulfill that promise. As the company celebrates its 80th anniversary, Mark Torrisi, President, joins us to reflect on both Jackson Lumber’ s past achievements and its current trajectory.“ My grandfather launched Jackson Lumber in 1946 after deciding to transition from contractor work to the supply business,” Mark begins.“ He started the company on Jackson Street in Lawrence, Massachusetts, which is where the name came from. From there, he expanded our operations and moved to our current address because it was a larger site with a railroad siding that facilitated growth. After my grandfather, my father took over the business and ran it for many years, and now, my brother, sister, cousin, and I represent the third generation of owners and managers. In the early 2000s, we began expanding our facilities and adding new locations, and today, we operate four lumber yards, a door shop, and a kitchen design showroom, employing more than 210 team members across our various sites. 110
