Woodgrain to Acquire Kelleher Corporation
Woodgrain, a manufacturer and distributor of millwork and building materials, has announced an asset purchase agreement to acquire Kelleher Corporation.
The transaction is expected to close no later than February 28, 2025.
Kelleher Corporation specializes in the distribution of moulding, lumber, and doors, serving customers in California, Nevada, and Hawaii with warehouse facilities in Northern and Southern California, as well as Hawaii.
The acquisition of Kelleher Corporation positions Woodgrain for significant growth in these markets and is expected to bring enhanced service offerings, increased product availability, and a continued commitment to quality.
“Kelleher is a company that we have always admired,” said Kelly Dame, president and CEO of Woodgrain. “Being a family-owned business, Kelleher shares values that resonate deeply with Woodgrain, creating a strong foundation for collaboration, shared success, and market growth.”
The Kelleher acquisition is considered a strategic move that aligns with Woodgrain’s vertical integration strategy, strengthening its distribution network and enhancing Woodgrain’s ability to meet increased customer demand in the pro dealer and home center channels.
“Our shared values, and Woodgrain being a family-owned business played an important role in this decision,” said Don Kelleher, CEO of Kelleher Corporation. “We believe that Woodgrain will be a great fit for all the Kelleher employees, vendor partners and loyal customers.”
Headquartered in Fruitland, Idaho, Woodgrain is family-owned business with over 50 manufacturing and warehouse facilities in the United States and South America.
