About Us

Latvala Lumber began in 1980 on the Iron Range by the Latvala family. Like many lumberyards at that time, they milled and sold lumber and building materials. By providing quality products and services and standing behind them they were blessed with continuous growth. In 2011 the decision was made to expand geographically with the acquisition of a lumberyard in Grand Rapids, MN. This has led to Latvala becoming the leading lumberyard in the region. Under new ownership in 2021 Latvala continues to grow and provide high quality building materials along with top notch service. Our commitment to treating everyone how we want to be treated galvanizes our team and provides the commitment that our customers have grown to expect.
