Large wood industry firms restructure; small woodworking businesses retool and reposition. Either way, it’s a critical moment to prepare for the recovery. Daniel Island Woodworks, a Charleston, SC, custom woodworking operation (see page 22), has identified a market opening: with closure of several kitchen cabinet businesses in its area, the firm is targeting home builders and remodelers as an opportunity for growth. It will also open a design center where its clients can meet with their clients for creative development of projects. It will be standing at-the-ready with all its woodworking expertise to take those dream projects to reality and grow another market segment.
