Lumbermen’s Inc. Grows Building Materials Division Leadership Team

Lumbermen’s is excited to announce leadership growth within our Building Materials Division. Significant growth in sales, workforce, and expansion into new territories like Minnesota in 2024 has led us to make some changes to our leadership structure. Effective September 30, 2024, Shawn Montague will be promoted to Senior Vice President of Building Materials. In this role, Shawn will focus on strategic growth initiatives and oversee the division on a broader scale.

Steve Petersen, CEO and President, had this to say about the creation of this new role: “If you know Shawn, you’re aware of his exceptional talent in customer experience and his strong leadership and strategic abilities. We’re eager to see how his new role will further enhance our success and benefit our customers!”

Additionally, we are pleased to announce that Jeff Malloch will be joining the company as the new Vice President of Building Materials. Jeff comes to Lumbermen’s from a leadership position with West Ottawa School District based in Holland, MI, where he was responsible for overseeing an organization of over 800 employees. Jeff will initially spend his time working closely with Shawn to understand the nuances surrounding our customers, vendors, and employee owners. His primary focus will be to support the Regional Sales Managers and ensure that the Lumbermen’s culture and level of service not only remain strong but continue to grow.

“We invite our partners throughout the industry to join me in congratulating Shawn on his promotion and welcoming Jeff and his family to Lumbermen’s,” added Petersen. “We are fortunate to have outstanding leaders across our business segments who are dedicated to our valued customers.”
