Central Lumber Corporation (CLC) was established in 1946 starting out as a humble lumber store in Cebu City. Cesar C. Sinco, the patriarch of CLC laid out and said what would be the basic path of CLC - “If given a choice between two businesses, one passive and other one active, both earning the same profit, choose the one that creates jobs.”With that, for the next 75 years, CLC actively grew its business exponentially expanding its distribution network across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao and, offering multiple lines of construction materials with thousands of products across brands (Gardner TPI, Eastberg GM, Oregon Wood, Armourwood, White Shield, Geigher Metal Frames, Integra Doors, etc). We have expanded our market and are now catering to residential, commercial and industrial needs.We have retail and wholesale outlets in Cebu strategically located in Mandaue and Magallanes; depots and distribution centers in Cebu, Malabon, Valenzuela, and Batangas. We have paved our way up and become one of the key players in the construction industry.With over 160,000 products, CLC has grown into a complete lumber, hardware, and construction supply company and has become a fully integrated family-owned corporation.Today, CLC has grown to over 400 employees and continues its trajectory of growth living by the enduring principle of our patriarch to continue creating jobs for people.

Central Lumber Corporation offers valuable opportunities for professional growth, particularly for those early in their careers. Employees appreciate the strong team relationships they build with colleagues, and some financial benefits such as leave conversion and mid-year bonuses are viewed positively.

Additionally, there are opportunities to improve management practices, particularly in areas of workload distribution and employee recognition.

Dec 2025Cebu City Cebu6 to 7 years in the role, former employee
The people were okay to work with, but the workload, long hrs, lack of activities, and comp.‼️❌🚫
The good thingsIn my experience, the workplace itself was okay and the environment was generally manageable.
Another thing I noticed is that the company didn’t offer employee activities such as team-building, trick-or-treat, or other engagement events. So if we wanted to bond or go on an outing, we had to organize it ourselves as coworkers.
The challengesHowever, the workload became difficult, especially when management assumed that certain tasks were easy, which often led to additional work being assigned without proper adjustment to compensation.
The office hours (7:32 AM to 6:08 PM, Monday to Friday) were already quite long, and in our department we frequently had to overtime, sometimes going home around 8:00 PM, then starting again at 7:32 AM the next day. It was exhausting and challenging to maintain work-life balance.
The salary was also not fixed, and because it seemed to follow an hourly basis, our pay would decrease whenever the month had fewer weekdays.
