Spahn & Rose Lumber Co. Set To Acquire City Lumber Co.
Spahn & Rose Lumber Co., of Dubuque, Iowa, has entered into an agreement to purchase City Lumber Co., a lumber and building-materials supplier, truss manufacturer and hardware store in Huntsville, AL.
City Lumber was founded in 1974 and Dick Strobel steadily grew the business over the decades, emphasizing community involvement while providing high-quality building materials to northern Alabama. In 2010, Strobel’s daughter Gina and son-in-law Jason Terry purchased the company.

The company’s truss manufacturing capabilities help contractors and builders save time and money.
Spahn & Rose has 25 locations throughout, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Georgia and now Alabama. The acquisition bolsters Spahn & Rose’s presence in the Southeast. Founded in 1904, Spahn & Rose is a leading lumber distributor in the Midwest.
The acquisition of City Lumber marks the fifth recent major addition for Spahn & Rose, which also includes Dunn Lumber in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, in February 2019; Moeller & Walter Lumber in Reinbeck, Iowa, in February 2020.
