W.M.
Cramer
President & Founder
The
history begins in 1958 when Wendell M. Cramer began working at the Benson
Sawmill in Pickens, WV. Subsequently, Wendell joined the hardwood sales staff
of the Georgia Pacific Corporation where he worked five years before founding
the W.M. Cramer Lumber Co. as a wholesale operation in Augusta, GA. In 1971,
after five successful years as a wholesaler, Wendell carried out his long-range
plan and established a lumber concentration yard in Hildebran, NC. The company
grew adding a sawmill in WV, company trucks, kilns, planers, ripsaws, and an
export division. Later, other distribution centers arose in Florida and
Georgia. |
