Welcome to Central Wood Products
Much of her early childhood was spent at her grandparents’ sawmill and lumberyard and later on at her parents’ sawmill and lumberyard (Central Lumber Ltd., simply called the yard). It is safe to say that sawdust is in her blood. She is the eldest of four, and like her, each of her siblings has worked at the yard in some capacity over the years. Her brother owns and operates “Bob’s Mouldings.” His company manufactures wood mouldings, corbels, rosettes and other wood products. Central Wood Products imports its Teak and other woods and wood products from Central Lumber Ltd and Bob’s Mouldings. CWP also sources lumber and wood products from US based sawmills and manufacturers.

In her spare time she enjoys reading, working in her garden and binge watching a variety of programs. She is passionate about environmental causes and helping those in need.

Roxy, The Teak Doggy
Company Mascot
Let me tell you about my best friend. Roxy, is a Westie mix who encompasses all the traits of being a terrier. She loves to run, jump and is territorial. She enjoys laying outside when the weather is nice, chasing lizards and barking at people as they pass by the house. She was a rescue puppy adopted through the Pet Rescue By Judy organization. #AdoptDontShop
Roxy crossed the rainbow bridge in August of 2024. She was my faithful companion for 14.5 years. She is forever loved, missed dearly and remembered fondly.

Rusty
Rusty came into our lives back in 2018. We adopted him from a wonderful organization, Poodle and Pooch Rescue of Florida. He is a beagle/fox hound mix. He is my sweet, shy boy and loves a good head scratch and belly rub. Most of the times folks won’t know he is at the shop because he prefers his bed to being out in the shop. Roxy taught him how to “dog” and helped him get comfortable around our home and shop.
