• Builders FirstSource: Major US supplier of building materials including doors, trim, and millwork to professional builders and contractors. Comparable trade-channel focus but with national scale and broader category coverage.
• Rona: Major Canadian home improvement banner with significant Ontario store density. Competes in the same doors, trim, and building materials categories but as part of a full-line home improvement assortment.
