THE MORE THE
MIGHTIER Matt Lambert
Lambert Lumber
My family started our business in 1989. Over the years,
several companies offered to buy us out, but we weren’t
interested in selling the store without a plan for the future
and for our employees. When other groups approached us,
their perspective was always that their teams would come in
and ours would get out of the way.
Chris has a different way of doing things. With Nation’s
Best, Chris is much more focused on families and
employees. Our discussions with him were personal and
one-on-one, and we are still involved in nearly every
decision. That alone sets Nation’s Best apart.
Our employees also have so many
more opportunities now than they
would have otherwise. And the buying
power that came with Nation’s Best
has not only driven pricing down for
our customers, but has also decreased
delivery time.
It’s not leaving one family to join another company,
it’s simply joining a larger family. I’m thrilled with what
Nation’s Best has done with our business and I’m excited
to be a part of it.
