Our History
In 1955, Grandpa Floyd and Grandma Ruth White opened White Builders Supply on Main Street in Richmond. It was a family-operated store helping new home builders and renovators build and construct their homes, sheds, and decks. Floyd graduated from Utah State Agricultural College (now Utah State University) and taught Industrial Arts at our local North Cache High School. Ruth, also a graduate of USAC, was not only the bookkeeper but also the truck driver for their small, successful store.
Floyd and Ruth's youngest, Doug, worked at the family supply store for many years in the lumber yard. After returning home from his mission with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and graduating from Utah State University, Doug saw an opportunity with rolled-edge laminated countertops. He purchased a post-form laminated machine and established Cache Valley Counter Tops in 1976, offering countertops inside the lumberyard of White Builders Supply.
After Floyd passed away in 1987, Doug continued his father's work ethic and tenacity. In 1990, CVCT started offering Corian countertops, one of the first in Utah to do so. Because of their work and commitment, they were awarded by the International Solid Surface Fabricators Association for "Fabricator of the Year."
In 2006, Doug stepped down as CEO, and his son, Paul White, assumed the role. I started working in my dad's business after returning from a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In 2000, I graduated from Utah State University with a Bachelor of Business Management degree. I think I learned more in one week of managing CVCT than in my entire time at USU. In 2014, I changed the name of the business to Cache Valley Cabinets & Tops to more accurately reflect who we are and what we do.
I am proud to be a third-generation owner. My family has been providing strong service and authentic, high-quality products for over 70 years. As the owner of Cache Valley Cabinets & Tops, I promise that my employees and I will always treat you with respect, courtesy, and professionalism. If we fall short of this in any way, tell me about your experience, and I will personally send you twenty dollars.
