HOUSTON – Holland Southwest International, Inc. and Houston Plywood Industry, Inc. have come to an agreement to join forces in the distribution of Houston Plywood products. Houston Plywood specializes in producing domestic plywood, while Holland Southwest has maintained a strong position as a wholesaler, importer, and distributor of forestry products for more than 60 years. The domestic plywood is available in a variety of species and may be ordered in truckload or LTL quantities directly from Holland Southwest.

“We are extremely excited to partner with Houston Plywood in this new venture. It is a perfect fit for both companies,” says JoAnn Gillebaard, President and CEO of Holland Southwest International.

Since Houston Plywood's plant is located in the Houston area, it creates significant shipping cost savings for customers located in the South, says Gillebaard. Holland Southwest was founded in 1953 by Holland immigrant Gus Gillebaard. It specializes in worldwide sourcing and inventory support for playwood and panel, with inventory locations in 12 U.S. cities and shipping to 18 countries in all continents.
