US LBM, a U.S.-based distributor of specialty building materials, has acquired RAKS Building Supply, a provider of building products and manufactured components to professional builders and contractors throughout central New Mexico.
Founded in 1986 and headquartered in Los Lunas, RAKS offers a portfolio of home building supplies that include lumber, doors, windows and hardware.
RAKS operates five locations throughout the Albuquerque metropolitan area, along with full line yards in Socorro and Edgewood, and two in Albuquerque.
“US LBM has an outstanding track record of partnering with the best local building materials suppliers, and we’re excited for the enhanced value and greater opportunities this partnership will create for our associates, customers and the community,” said Richie Tabet, who along with Kenny and Bobby Trujillo, will continue to lead RAKS’ day-to-day operations.
With the acquisition of RAKS, US LBM now operates 12 locations across the state of New Mexico.
