Industry Insights

The Lumber, Plywood, Millwork & Wood Panel Merchant Wholesalers industry is being affected by several key trends. One trend is the increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products. With growing awareness of environmental concerns and the push for more sustainable practices, consumers are seeking out products that are certified and produced in a sustainable manner. This trend has led to an increase in the availability of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified products and other eco-friendly options.

Another key trend is the use of technology in the industry. Many companies have implemented digital tools such as inventory management systems, online ordering platforms, and mobile apps to improve their operations and better serve their customers. Additionally, the use of automation and robotics is becoming more prevalent in manufacturing processes, increasing efficiency and reducing labor costs.

The industry is also facing a labor shortage, which has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many companies are struggling to find and retain skilled workers, leading to an increase in wages and benefits to attract talent.

Lastly, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted supply chains and created price volatility in the industry. As demand for lumber and other wood products surged during the pandemic, prices soared and supply chain disruptions caused delays and shortages. The industry is still navigating these challenges and adapting to the new normal.
