Jenkins became president of Culpeper Wood Preservers in 2016. Started from a single location in Culpeper in 1976, the company now has 19 locations on the East Coast and in Indiana and Tennessee. It is a leading manufacturer of pressure-treated lumber products for the residential, commercial, industrial and marine markets. Its name-brand products are sold through lumber dealers in the mid-Atlantic, Northeast, Midwest and South.
In the last quarter of 2024, Culpeper Wood Preservers announced it had acquired Fortress Wood Products, a North Carolina-based wood supplier and pressure treater, and Long Life Treated Wood, a Maryland-based supplier and manufacturer that specializes in marine-grade lumber. Financial terms of the deals were not disclosed.
Before building his career in lumber, Jenkins, an East Carolina University graduate, was recruited by the Chicago White Sox. He pitched for Minor League Baseball teams for six years, also working as a coach and scout, before joining Culpeper Wood Preservers in the 2000s.
