HEBER, Ariz. — US LBM has acquired Home Center Supply, a specialty building materials supplier in central Arizona. Home Center Supply will join US LBM's Arizona-based R&K Building Supply and operate under the R&K brand.

Home Center Supply operates two retail locations in Heber and Payson, Ariz., providing lumber, doors, windows, drywall, hardware, roofing and decking products to professional builders and do-it-yourselfers.

With the addition of Home Center Supply, US LBM now operates four locations in Arizona, including R&K's 20-acre property just outside of Phoenix in Gilbert, which includes sales offices, showrooms, a lumberyard, truss plant and several warehouses. In addition to R&K, US LBM's Rosen Materials also operates a location in Arizona.

"Home Center Supply is a trusted partner in its community, known for its superior products, expert advice and customer service, and this will be a great addition to US LBM and R&K," said US LBM President & CEO L.T. Gibson. "As a leading distributor in the Phoenix area, these new locations will help R&K expand its reach and product offering to customers in central Arizona."

Last month, US LBM reached an agreement to acquire J.P. Hart Lumber and Hart Components, a building products distributor and manufacturer with eight operating locations across Texas. Upon completion of the acquisition, US LBM will operate 65 locations in Texas.
