EVERGREEN, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–1stWest Mergers and Acquisitions announced today that it served as the exclusive advisor to the owners of Thomas Building Center in its acquisition by Kodiak Building Partners.
1stWest M&A is the leading and most active seller’s M&A advisor in the lumber and building materials sector, and Thomas Building Center joins three other 1stWest M&A clients that Kodiak Building Partners has recently acquired.
Thomas Building Center, located in Sequim, WA has been in business for more than 50 years. Opened in 1972, Thomas has become the preferred building materials supplier for building professionals and homeowners/DIY customers on the Olympic Peninsula, offering building products from “foundation to finish.” Thomas also operates “Power by Thomas,” a power equipment and Stihl dealer, and “Rentals by Thomas,” a rental center featuring tools, trailers, and equipment.
“With the acquisition of Thomas Building Center, Kodiak has acquired a storied company – more than half a century in business – and it expands Kodiak’s position on the Olympic Peninsula,” said John D. Wagner, 1stWest M&A’s Managing Director. “Although 1stWest M&A engaged with many interested parties, Kodiak stepped up when it saw a natural fit for Thomas Building Center among the other acquisitions Kodiak has completed in the Pacific Northwest.” (Link to other recent deal announcements from 1stWest M&A.)
