Bliffert Lumber expands into Green Bay
By: Daily Reporter Staff//July 14, 2025//
Milwaukee-based Bliffert Lumber has completed a merger with Jauquet Lumber Co. Inc., a family-owned business based in Green Bay, that will allow Bliffert to expand in to the Fox Valley.
Founded in 1905, Jauquet Lumber has served northeast Wisconsin for 120 years. The company is owned and operated by third-generation brothers, Jim and Joe Jauquet.
“We believe joining the Bliffert family allows us to continue our tradition of outstanding service while positioning us to grow for generations to come,” said Jim Jauquet, co-owner of Jauquet Lumber, in a news release. “We are very similar in how we do business.”
“Nothing makes me happier than welcoming strong, independent lumberyards like Jauquet into our family,” said Eli Bliffert, fifth-generation owner of Bliffert Lumber, in a news release. “We’re thrilled to expand into the Green Bay area and serve new communities with the same passion and commitment we bring to all of our locations. We are absolutely stronger together.”
The merger was finalized on June 30, 2025.
