OBS

In 1955, two provincial groups came together to form one regional building supply-oriented association. The New Brunswick Retail Lumber Dealers Association and the Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island Retail Lumber Dealers Association joined forces and became known as the Maritime Retail Lumber Dealers Association and in 1959, the first Newfoundland dealer member was accepted, giving the association an Atlantic Canadian scope. In 1960, the association became known as the Atlantic Provinces Retail Lumber Dealers Association. In 1965 the current name was adopted.
