PARR Lumber Damascus broke ground Tuesday, April 16, at 19855 Sunnyside Road, just west of Safeway. That location is the 47th in the Pacific Northwest.
“Thank you for your support, it means a lot to our team,” said Mike Howell, PARR CEO. “Damascus will serve customers in important regional markets.”
This will be the third location in East County, with two other branches in Rockwood and Gresham. But the Damascus location will have all of the company’s offerings, with an extensive showroom, team of sale specialists, and all the subsidiaries in a one-stop spot.
