Continues Thriving in Today’s Market
By Clementina Verge
For some 32 years, Paul Niland has greeted the day with the sound of forklifts, 18 wheelers, laughter among colleagues, and even meows from Woody—the barn
cat. Some say it takes him at least an hour to get from his truck to his office as he stops and “checks in” with every employee. It is this level of personal interest in his staff and customers that has propelled the growth of Woodbury Supply—from a small office in Woodbury to six thriving locations across New England.
“The company was founded on a simple premise by the original founder, Ken Norris, and our motto remains the same,” notes Niland, company president. “Combine top quality products, dedicated workmanship, competitive pricing, expert advice, and always put the needs of our customers first. Every day. Every customer. Every project.” Such commitment has been upheld even during difficult times—including recessions—when Niland “did it all” and still does now. To this day, Niland believes in a hands-on approach where you will find him in the warehouse loading and off loading trucks, delivering products, and assisting customers in the showroom.
Embracing the family tradition, his son John became involved with the company
as a teenager, working summers in the warehouse, and learning the business while
advancing within the company. Today, as company vice president, John handles most day-to-day operations. Under this father and son leadership, a staff of eight has evolved into 76 employees sharing a strong work ethic and commitment— especially during the recent pandemic.
Focused on quality and integrity, since the late ‘80s, Woodbury Supply has partnered with Marvin windows and doors—another family-operated business since 1912—known for building quality, beauty, and simplicity into people’s everyday lives. Woodbury Supply has locations in Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. This thriving company offers an extensive product line including exterior and interior doors, windows, siding, decking, and custom millwork. Four locations feature Marvin Design Galleries that incorporate functioning displays and countless solutions to help customers make
informed decisions.
Woodbury Supply’s Millwork Department offers an unmatched variety of services. From pergolas to porticos, mantles to moldings, arches to curves—using state-of-the art equipment, the highly trained staff provides expert advice and support. Whether customers are building a dream house, renovating their current home, or remodeling a room, the staff at Woodbury Supply sees each project from inspiration and selection, to delivery and completion.
“No matter the size and scope of a project, we can make it happen,” assures Paul. “One thing we have never lost sight of as a company is how important the customer is to us. Without the customer, we would not be here, and therefore, we do anything we possibly can—whether it be for a consumer, a builder, or an architect.”
