LBM Journal, the leading magazine for the lumber / building material distribution channel, announced that Bliffert Lumber has received the Entrepreneur of the Year Award for 2014 in the category of "Sales of $10 to $50 Million." 

The prestigious award honors Bliffert Lumber as a company that epitomizes the entrepreneurial spirit by excelling at satisfying customers, embracing company improvements and successfully seeking out new business opportunities.

In 2014, Bliffert Lumber celebrates its 110th anniversary. The fifth-generation, family-owned and operated business has seven locations in Wisconsin.

Operations are located in Milwaukee, Oak Creek, Waukesha and Sturtevant. 

"Our locations are strategically positioned to provide product, materials and service to as many people in the greater Milwaukee area as possible," says Eli Bliffert, vice president of Bliffert Lumber.

"This makes it much easier for customers to get what they need, especially since we transfer items to whichever location they would like, or even deliver directly to them."
