The aftermarket selection of bed wood has historically been very small, with oak frequently the only option on offer. Bed Wood and Parts, LLC aims to remedy that lack of choice with a broad selection of both domestic and exotic wood bed kits. The company currently offers more than 20 wood species for use in wood beds and liners for trucks, SUVs and station wagons. Online distribution via companies like Wal-Mart and Amazon.com may also be in the works for some Bed Wood and Parts, LLC’s products, including the WoodBone\u00ae Tailgate Butcher Block, which fits across truck tailgate interiors.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority (KEDFA) granted assistance, in the form of performance-based tax incentives up to $1 million, to Bed Wood and Parts, LLC through the Kentucky Business Investment program. The Kentucky Skills Network may also provide resources, such as\u00a0no-cost recruitment and job placement services, to the company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
