Business Description

In 1976 Dennis H. Doherty Sr. and his wife decided to move from their current home in South Portland, Maine to a more rural area. They found a home in Standish, Maine and soon moved in. Once settled in their new home Dennis decided to put his carpentry background to use, and so he built a picnic table for his young family to use for meals outside their new home. Once the table was constructed and put on the front lawn to use, someone pulled into the driveway and asked how much the picnic table costs. Dennis gave them a price that he quickly came up in his head based on his costs and a marginal markup on his labor. The customer bought the picnic table and bells went off in Dennis’ head, an entrepreneur was born! Since Michael Doherty has taken over the company, we have added new prodcuts, new locations and tools to be able to take on more! We anticipate the third generation (Chance Doherty, Vice President) Jaxson, Riley and Chances wife Hannah and fourth generation (Hannah and Chances Son, Stetson) to continue growing the company!
