Arnold Lumber Recognized by Best Companies Group for 2025 Best Places to Work for Women Award

"We are proud to share that Arnold Lumber has been recognized by Best Companies Group as a recipient of the inaugural 2025 Best Places to Work for Women Award.
This national recognition celebrates organizations that foster equity, opportunity, and inclusion, creating workplaces where women can truly thrive. Survey results and analysis focused on the voices and experiences of women across industries, and we are honored to be among the inaugural winners.
For us at Arnold Lumber, this award is especially meaningful. As a fourth-generation, women-owned family business serving Rhode Island and Southern New England since 1911, our commitment to people has always been at the heart of who we are. Today, under the leadership of sisters Allison Arnold and Kate Carret, we continue to build on that legacy—championing an environment where women are valued, supported, and given opportunities to succeed across all areas of our business.
"The Arnold Family prioritizes investing in a strong, supportive company culture. Our commitment extends to every partner in our business, and the women on our team exemplify the strength of that culture. In an industry largely dominated by men, we are proud and honored to be recognized as one of the Best Places to Work for Women."
– Allison Arnold & Kate Arnold Carret
We are humbled to stand alongside other outstanding companies recognized nationwide, and we remain committed to cultivating a workplace where every team member feels empowered to grow and make a difference. Because when our people thrive, so do our customers and the communities we serve."
