Excerpt from Marketing of Lumber by Retail Lumber Yards in the Northeast: Phase III Northeastern region retail lumber yards are primarily corporations. The latter account for nearly 80 cents of each dollar spent at all retail yards, and over 90 percent operate only one yard. Fifty-two percent of all yards have an annual gross dollar sales volume under The other, larger yards, sell nearly three times the volume (in dollars) of those with sales under The number of employees per of gross sales declines steadily from seven for the smallest yards to two for yards with gross sales over one million dollars. Yards offer a variety of products and services. While wood products dominate sales, lumber dollar sales volume is only 39 percent of total gross sales dollars. Larger yards offer a greater variety of products and tend to include many non-wood related items. Retailers show a substantial preference for western lumber, 70 per cent of purchased volumes. Quality, lengths, volume available, and spe cies characteristics are cited as major reasons. They do shop around for the best price and buy 32 percent directly from sawmill producers. Can adian imports, 14 percent, are second in volume while Eastern species comprise only 11 percent of total lumber purchases. The volume of dimension lumber purchased is nearly twice the volume of boards with 75 percent of the former in western species. Retail yards sell primarily to three consumer groups: building con tractors, home owners, and industrial plants. Nearly 50 percent of all sales are to building contractors, 30 percent to home owners, 12 percent to industries, and the remaining volumes to all other consumers. The larger yards sell more volume to contractors while smaller yards sell more volume to home owners. Sales to building contractors are most im portant in Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire. Sales to home owners dominate in West Virginia and Maine. Massachusetts has the greatest proportion of sales to industries. Retail lumber yards sell a quality product, primarily dimension lumber from western species to building contractors. But home owners are apparently strongly oriented to do-it-yourself projects as nearly one-third of retail yard lumber sales are to these people. Although wood products represent the major proportion of annual gross dollar sales volume, larger yards sell a substantial dollar volume of non-wood items.
