Welbeck Sawmill LTD joins the BMR dealer network 

Boucherville, April 15, 2026 – BMR is proud to announce a network’s addition with the arrival of Welbeck Sawmill LTD, a historic building materials retailer located in Durham, Ontario. 

A true local pillar, Welbeck draws on more than 170 years of history. Founded in 1845 as a sawmill, the company evolved over time to expand its activities in 1975 with the construction of a 10,000-square-foot retail store. 

Five years ago, this iconic site began a new chapter upon its acquisition by the Kieswetter Family originally from the Kitchener Waterloo area. 

Welbeck is recognized for the quality of its offering, including a selection of exotic woods, supported by specialized expertise and personalized service. The company serves both residential homeowners and professional contractors at competitive prices. 

Dynamic and forward-looking, the Welbeck team is enthusiastic about joining the BMR network, providing strategic resources to support its growth, while offering a refreshed brand image to its customers. 

Recognized expertise and trusted services are now enhanced by more competitive prices on hardware, tools, and materials. 

“Welbeck is built on tradition and designed for what’s next,” said Kirk Kieswetter, co-owner at Welbeck. 

"We are very pleased to become part of the history of Welbeck, which has held an important place at the heart of the community for generations," added Alexandre Lefebvre, Chief Executive Officer of BMR.
