Who says you can't teach an old log new tricks? Founded in 1932 by Warren Carter, Carter Lumber owns about 250 lumber and home-improvement stores in Ohio and eight other states from Michigan to South Carolina. The company caters to both contractors and do-it-yourselfers supplying them with lumber, plywood, roofing, kitchen and bath products, windows, doors, plumbing and electrical products, heating equipment, tools, siding, and other products. The home-improvement retailer also operates two building supply centers and 72,000 acres of timberland in Arkansas. Warren Carter died in 2000, at the age of 101, but Carter Lumber continues to be a family-owned business.
