The Trico Lumber Company has grown by leaps and bounds since opening in 1980 in Hughes Springs, Texas. Established in 1980 by David Beard and Marvin Morgan, Kyle Morgan began working for the Trico Lumber Co. in 1983. Rebbecca, joined the company in 1984. By 1991, Kyle and Rebbecca Morgan bought the business. Reflecting on our success, Kyle has said, "Trico made it through because we developed a good base of builders who were loyal to us. Our local customers have helped us stay steady through the rough times. We appreciate the relationships we have had with customers in the past and always welcome new customers."
Since the changeover in 1991, the business has seen substantial growth. We opened a second Trico Lumber Co. location in Linden, Texas, in 2009 and a third location in Jefferson in 2015.
