This expansion to Springfield follows successful prior expansions earlier in 2025 in Monroe, Louisiana, and Little Rock, Arkansas, marking the third such growth initiative this year. According to Leo Oei, BlueLinx’s Vice President of Product Management and National Accounts, this continued collaboration uses BlueLinx’s strong customer relationships and logistics expertise to deliver high-quality building products to the single-family, multi-family, and light commercial building sectors.

Sarah Galvin, Louisiana-Pacific’s National Account Manager, emphasized that this expanded footprint in Springfield will provide additional access to SmartSide products in what is considered an underpenetrated market. This growth will drive continued success through BlueLinx’s robust distribution network and expertise for both the companies involved.
