In this episode, Molly Butz is joined by Justin Binning and Jeff Hoggard with American International Forest Products (AIFP) who provide a snapshot of the current lumber market. The market is navigating a complex mix of pressures, with producers leaning on creative deals to stay competitive. At the same time, concerns over a severe wildfire season and strained trucking capacity, driven in part by rising fuel costs, are adding uncertainty to an already tight supply chain. Justin has been with AIFP since 2010 with a focus in Southern Yellow Pine and Jeff has been with AIFP since 2012 with a focus on green and dry Doug fir, MSR and European lumber. Both specialize in high grade lumber for the component manufacturing industry.
