Gennett Lumber

For over a century, Gennett Lumber Co. has been a leading provider of high-quality hardwoods, earning a solid reputation in the market. The company's story began in 1901 when brothers Andrew and Nat Gennett purchased a lumber mill on the Chattooga River in Georgia and South Carolina. Along with a boundary of timber in some of the most challenging terrains in the South, they embarked on a journey that would eventually establish Gennett Lumber as a trusted name in the industry.

The Gennetts' success can be attributed to their business acumen, long-term planning, and a deep understanding of the importance of preserving old-growth forests. Despite the fierce competition and scarcity of regulations at the time, the Gennetts outsmarted numerous competitors to create a thriving business that once consisted of 25 mills, a rail system, and a town named Gennett in Tennessee. They were also environmentally conscious, selling 36,000 acres of forest in Fanning County, Georgia to the United States Government, which led to the establishment of the United States Forest Service.

Today, Gennett Lumber Co. continues to uphold its commitment to quality and service, with a third generation of Gennetts at the helm.
