Boise Building Materials Distribution (Boise, Idaho), a division of Boise Cascade, LLC, is building a new 80,000-sq.-ft. distribution center in Milton, Florida, near Pensacola. BBMD is a wholesale distributor of building materials serving Pro Dealers and DIY retailers in the United States.

With the addition of this new facility, BBMD will have 30 locations across the country. Construction on the 27-acre site has begun, with completion and start-up scheduled for early 2007. The site is located near major transportation corridors including Interstate 10 and will be rail served.

According to Stan Bell, senior vice president of BBMD, the new facility will serve a strong market, driven by the rebuilding needed after hurricane Katrina and significant construction taking place in the Florida panhandle.
