Our History
Canadian Engineered Wood Products Ltd. began operations in March of 1999 by three partners: Griffin Jones,Ferg Evans and Dave LeBreton. Starting with two locations, the corporate head office in Sylvan Lake, AB, and a sales office in Sidney, BC, the focus of the company was (and still is) marketing and distribution to the truss industry in Canada and the United States.
As Canadian Engineered Wood Products grew, we broadened our product area to include premium visual grade products with sales destined for the industrial/treating sectors. Soon after, "Lumber Manager", a computerized inventory management and tracking system was developed to allow CEWP to track every order, including tracing by rail car and truck.
In 2002, Canadian Engineered Wood Products was pleased to announce its agreement with Millar Western Forest Products to act as their sole distributer for MSR lumber products.
Canadian Engineered Wood Products remains committed to expanding its role in the international lumber marketplace. As the global market continues to expand and show strong growth potential for the future, Canadian Engineered Wood Products will be there. We strongly believe that the customer's success is our success, and that raising the bar to provide the best in customer service and products is the key to our long term growth.
Canadian Engineered Wood Products is looking forward to putting all our resources to work for you.
