The Wood Guys one of the retailers of premium Tasmanian timber, is now on the market for the first time since its establishment in 2005.

In the heart of Tasmania, a unique opportunity awaits those who dream of owning a piece of the island’s speciality retail market. The Wood Guys, one of the state’s largest retailers of premium Tasmanian timber, is now on the market for the first time since its establishment in 2005.

“Specialty timber is a valuable and finite resource. We currently have a huge stockpile of Tasmanian speciality timber, all sawn and air-dried, ready for use, which is now irreplaceable, given the recent changes in the industry.” said the Owner of Wood Guys, Holly Smillie.

This stockpile not only secures a sustainable supply for years to come but also presents an enticing investment opportunity amidst the soaring prices of speciality timber.

The Wood Guys currently operates from two retail locations, with a prime showroom in Derwent Park and a smaller outlet in Devonport. The Wood Guys has established itself as a key player in the region.

“The beauty of this business is you can do as much or as little as you like. It is the perfect husband/wife business, with one doing the milling/ machining/ workshop work, while the other does the showroom/marketing side of things, or you could employ a manager and workshop staff and sit back, reaping the rewards,” Smillie added.

The business not only caters to the local market but has also garnered attention on the mainland, with increasing demand for expansion.

For prospective buyers, the allure lies not only in the exquisite range of Tasmanian specialty timbers like Huon Pine, Sassafras, Myrtle, Celery Top Pine, Blackwood, King Billy, and more but also in the beautiful handmade woodwork sourced from Tasmania’s finest craftspeople.

“We have completed many notable commissions – a new kitchen for the CEO of Estee Lauder, a custom table for Harvey Norman, timber for the Emirates Wolgan Valley resort (Australia’s only 6-star resort), a commission for the Arch Bishop of Australia, and many more.

Dedication, resilience, and drive are what have kept us going over the last 20 years. Never give up, and you will be rewarded for your effort. So many businesses have come and gone over the years; you just need to work hard and keep your eyes on the prize,” Smillie added.
