Wolf Home Products was founded in 1843 as a single store selling dry goods and lumber on the banks of Pennsylvania's Susquehanna River. During the first half of the 1900s, the company expanded into a mid-Atlantic wholesale and retail lumber operation with 30 locations.

By the early 2000s, Wolf transitioned its successful lumber operation into a sourcing organization, offering kitchen, bath, and building products exclusively to independent building materials dealers. Wolf Home Products continued its growth with the introduction of Wolf-branded product lines in 2010.
