An Okanagan-wide building supply company is closing its doors.

OK Builders Supplies Ltd. has announced its closing its builder centres and masonry division locations in Vernon, Kelowna and Penticton.

The family-owned business, headquartered in Kelowna, has been in operation for 65 years.

OK Builders will continue to operate the retail outlets as they wind down to final closure on March 1, the company said in a press release.

Meanwhile, the company has sold its OK Ready Mix concrete operations to Lehigh Hanson Materials Ltd. That transition is currently being completed. All OK Ready Mix locations from Penticton to Kamloops will continue under the same name.

“A huge thank you to the innumerable customers and suppliers who made this business a success over the past 65 years,” the company said in the statement.

“OK Builders Supplies Ltd. would also like to extend their sincere thanks to all the present and past employees, who along with their families have made working at OK Builders a real pleasure. We wish them all the very best.”
