Sept/Oct Issue

Dubuque, IA— Spahn & Rose Lumber Co., headquartered here, completed its purchase of Metro Building Products, based in Marietta, GA, recently. Spahn & Rose has said it has no plans to change Metro’s name, marketing focus, or local management. 

The acquisition unites two longtime successful companies. Founded in 1904, Spahn & Rose is a leading lumber and building materials provider in the Midwest and is one of the top 100 lumber and building materials suppliers in the country as reported by ProSales, a publication that reports on contractor and construction-industry trends.

Metro specializes in high quality building materials including pressure-treated lumber, Cedar and composite decking.

The acquisition of Metro Building Products marks the third major addition for Spahn & Rose in the past three years. In February 2019, it acquired Lake Geneva, WI based Dunn Lumber, and in February 2020, it acquired Moeller & Walter Lumber of Reinbeck, IA.
