See How America's Premier LBM Dealers Did in 2023

This 61-page PDF covers 150 LBM dealers, home centers, and hardware chains that in 2023 took in close to $382 billion in the U.S. plus another $16 billion in Canada and Mexico.

The Construction Supply 150 is produced by Webb Analytics based on a combination of surveys, SEC filings, and published reports. It is meant to give a snapshot of the state of construction supply as of year-end 2023. For the most part, the numbers in it show dealers' sales in the U.S. during the calendar year. For some companies, revenue for only the divisions that deal with residential construction are counted. For about a dozen companies, the revenues and facility counts shown are estimates.
