2008 was our 40th year at Pursell Manufacturing, which was founded in 1968 by
Bill and Richard Pursell (father and son) near Grants Pass, Oregon. With a commitment to customer service, they soon brought a quality brand name
and mass production to wooden Christmas tree stands, helping to revolutionize
the industry and make wood stands the most popular method of standing trees in
the American West.
With ties to the lumber industry, Pursell Mfg. also became one of the Northwest’s leading suppliers of wooden door and window parts. During the 80’s two other production facilities were added in Idaho and Arkansas as sales
expanded eastward and into the South.
Eventually, the line of Christmas products also expanded as customers asked for
quality products from a friendly and reliable source. Nail-on water bowls complimented the wood stands, and bottling machinery was
developed to meet the demand for liquid preservative and flame retardants. Richard’s two sons, Alan and Paul also began making their mark on the company. 1999 was a year of transition, as the Oregon facility (largely used for
non-Christmas production) was sold and the company moved to Colorado and fully
dedicated itself to Christmas supplies, adding a full line of products
including flock, rebar stands, poly tubing, netting, plastic stands, etc. In 2008, Pursell Manufacturing has added our own Pinnacle Flock to the list of
supplies produced in-house and delivered directly to customers. This added a new dimension to the already outstanding service and allows direct
control over not only the reliability of the products but also the assurance of
an adequate supply and delivery. Now customers can rely on one dependable source that actually manufactures
and/or overstocks many of their most critically needed products.
Today, with Pursell Manufacturing’s expanded facility and freight partners USF Reddaway and Fed-Ex, we can offer
the best available freight service at the lowest prices. Our distribution system is so efficient and reliable that several other
companies have asked us to handle their order processing and freight as well. Not only do we continue to ACTUALLY MANUFACTURE many of the Christmas products
that we carry, we offer the most comprehensive and responsive delivery system
available in the industry, from small packages to single pallets, to multiple
truckloads.
Pursell Manufacturing Corporation maintains the same level of dedication and
innovation with which it was founded, now manufacturing and providing a wide
variety of essential Christmas tree lot supplies to distributors, mass
marketers, and individual tree lots nationwide from the industry’s largest facility (four acre, 34,000 sq. ft.) in central Colorado. Many thanks to all of our friends and customers over the last four decades. We hope you will continue to choose Pursell Manufacturing for the very best in
quality and service for another 40 years to come!
