Building Relationships Since 1958

At Kraemer Lumber we have a complete line of quality building products for you to choose from for your next building project. 

Who We Are

Kraemer Lumber has been a family owned and operated business since 1958.

Edwin “Jack” Kraemer founded Kraemer Lumber in 1958 in Greenwald, Minnesota where his wife and 14 children resided. He later sold the shares of the company to his children. Currently two grandchildren and a son-in-law are the owners. At one time there was a lumber yard in Greenwald, Melrose, and Belgrade, MN.

In April of 2000 the current location, in Melrose, Minnesota, was purchased and the yards were consolidated into one. Since then, the business has continued to provide the quality products along with exceptional service people have come to expect from Kraemer Lumber for over 50 years!

The fall of 2014 broke ground on a 10,000 square foot addition to house a growing need within the community with our full line of Hardware items.

Summer of 2024, we added a second location again in Sauk Centre which was formerly Steiner Lumber. We are excited for the opportunity to bring quality building products to 2 wonderful communities and carry on our tradition of “Building Relationships Since 1958”.
