Our Humble Beginnings

It all started as a simple country lumber yard in Torrington, Wyoming fostered by the entrepreneurial vision of five brothers – Charles, Walter, John, Alvin and Howard Bloedorn. The Torrington yard’s success gave impetus to the purchase of additional small country stores, which led to the expansion of the Bloedorns’ business nationwide.

The Torrington Lumber & Coal Company was incorporated on April 21, 1919 by Charles, Avlin, and Howard Bloedorn, along with their brother-in-law, B.J. Hilsabeck. Although the original incorporators were Charles, Alvin, and Howard, the other brothers John and Walter joined as stockholders. From 1919-1952, the company continued expansion into larger towns, cities, and states.
