“The idea for this shop began with a desire to create a place where people can find high-quality products, receive good service and, most importantly, feel welcome. Behind the scenes at this shop, there’s more than just shelves, stock and a beautifully decorated space. There are also the people, the work, the courage, the ideas, and the belief in what we do,” said Ainārs Savčenko, Director of the “Grobiņa” plywood store, at the opening event.

Along with the refurbishment of the premises, the product range has also been significantly expanded. Customers now have access to a wider range of “Riga Wood” birch plywood manufactured by Latvijas Finieris, including large-size sheets, such as those produced by VEREMS RSEZ SIA in 7 × 13-foot formats and by Kohila Vineer in 5 × 12-foot formats. The plywood store also offers a plywood cutting service. You can also buy road signs, screws, paint for the edges of the boards, and even the legendary rocking horse, which has been known and loved by several generations.

“The refurbishment of the “Grobiņa” plywood store is part of a wider development plan for the “Riga Wood Baltic” retail network. Our aim is to be closer to our customers by offering a wider range of birch plywood, a modern shopping environment, and professional service. We want both industry professionals and individual buyers to find the solutions best suited to their needs here. What has been achieved in Grobiņa is a significant step in this direction, and similar changes are expected in Riga as early as next year,” emphasises Aldis Sjucillo, Commercial Director of “Riga Wood Baltic”.

As early as 2027, there are plans to open two new plywood stores – in Dreiliņi and Valdlauči – to which the operations of the existing plywood stores in Sarkandaugava and Bolderāja will be relocated. As a result, “Riga Wood Baltic” is continuing to expand its retail network to provide customers with easier access to its products and services.
