Land and legacy, carried forward through generations.
Krause & Managan Lumber Co., LLC continues its long-standing role in Southwest Louisiana through farms, land holdings, disposal services, rentals, development, & more.
Built from a partnership that lasted.
In June of 1889, in the small community of Westlake, Louisiana, two young men shared a desk while working for Perkins and Miller Lumber Company. That working relationship grew into a lifelong partnership, eventually leading the two men to acquire Perkins and Miller Lumber Company and build it into the foundation of a corporation that remains in existence today.
More than 150 years later, that corporation is known as Krause & Managan Lumber Company, L.L.C. Six generations later, the company’s revenue streams have changed, but its goal remains the same: to preserve and continue the original company.
The work has changed. The purpose has not.
Today, the company’s land holdings are located across multiple Southwest Louisiana parishes, with a modern office facility in Sulphur, Louisiana, situated on one of several working farms.
