Every business has a story to tell. At, Ivey’s Building Materials Center in Haughton, Louisiana, the story has very deep family roots and goes all the way back to the year 1969. That is when company founders Roy and Mack Ivey started the business in Logansport, Louisiana. The company later expanded to a store in Mansfield, Louisiana. Then, a location opened on Airline Drive in Bossier City in 1986, but the Bossier City expansion was short-lived due to unforeseen circumstances. Ivey’s Building Materials Center opened a brand new location in Haughton, Louisiana in early 2014. However, with the brief opening of a Bossier City location almost 30 years earlier, the Haughton store location is not their first venture into doing business in Bossier Parish.
