From Tech to Timber

Branden Banks spent a career supporting enterprise sales and complex implementations at leading tech firms. He built a reputation as a straight‑shooting problem‑solver who kept commitments and cut through jargon. Bringing that mindset to the lumber world, he founded 2K Wood Products to raise the bar on reliability, transparency, and partnership.

Pacific Northwest Roots

Based in Portland for over two decades, 2K Wood Products is deeply connected to regional mills and manufacturers across North America.

Hi, I’m Branden Banks.

I’m a connector, problem solver, and straight talker. I spent years in enterprise tech and fintech, helping sales and delivery teams turn complex requirements into workable solutions. That background taught me to ask clear questions, set honest expectations, and keep my word.

At 2K Wood Products, I bring the same discipline to every order. I care about all of the details, such as specs, schedules, and grades, because small misses become big delays. I prefer long-lasting partnership over transactions. You get clear scopes, transparent pricing, and proactive updates without having to chase me.

Portland has been home for more than two decades, and in that time I’ve built strong relationships with Northwest mills, regional distributors, manufacturers, and builders. I believe in collaboration, local wins, and doing business with integrity. If you want a supplier who picks up the phone and delivers when it counts, I’m here to help.

Community & Giving Back

I believe business should lift the community that makes it possible. Over the years I’ve volunteered and supported organizations that build homes, expand access to technology, and invest in kids. That includes Habitat for Humanity, Free Geek, Portland Rescue Mission, Playworks, and Watch D.O.G.S. I also coach youth in my own backyard as a Volunteer Coach for the Beaverton Youth Track Club and an Assistant Coach with Beaverton High Track & Field. If your project or partnership aligns with affordable housing, youth development, or digital access, I’d love to collaborate and amplify the impact.
