About
Founded in 1988 by Lawrence Newton, we have expanded beyond our Birmingham, Alabama roots to serve our customers across North America. Based in Duluth, Georgia, SBP operates as a national distribution platform. We are the critical link in the value chain between manufacturers of specialty products and customers. SBP offers sales, marketing and logistics solutions that bring a wide range of specialty building products to dealers serving the repair, remodel and new construction marketplaces. Our customer base is made up of 15,000+ local lumber yards, building supply dealers, and home improvement retailers who in turn serve the professional remodelers, home builders, general contractors, and DIY’ers in their local communities. We sell best-in-class products from manufacturers such as Trex, James Hardie, Pacific WoodTech, and Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP). Our customers include local, regional and national building material dealers and home improvement retailers. We have experienced a tremendous amount of growth as a company. This growth has not only served our customer base, but has also provided significant advancement opportunities for our employees.
