Hardwoods Distribution acquires Aura Hardwoods

Hardwoods Distribution Inc. announces the acquisition of Aura Hardwoods through its subsidiary Hardwoods Specialty Products. Aura operates six locations across Northern California in Modesto, Rancho Cordova, San Jose, San Luis Obispo, Fresno, and Santa Cruz.

“As part of our overall strategic plan for California, we combined two well-established, highly reputable companies – Aura and Hardwoods – to drive accelerated growth,” Dan Besen, Hardwoods’ Vice President, said in a statement.

“Along with our other recent acquisitions, Far West Plywood (January 2019) and Diamond Hardwoods (March 2020), our combined California footprint of 12 branches provides us a much better platform to be the premier distributor of architectural building products to both the design and millwork community throughout California. Additionally, the alignment in values and culture between the two companies was also a key determining factor in pursuing this fantastic opportunity.”
