February 1, 2023: Large Spring Buy Ahead, Plan For it Now

Justin Binning and Ken Timmins with American International Forest Products (AIFP) provide a snapshot of the current lumber market. After a bit of a slow start to 2023, buyers are back in the market and sharing that business is ramping up. Prices are slowly creeping upwards with several factors at play. Justin and Ken expect a large Spring buy and suggest that now is the time to be mindful of your inventory. Justin has been with AIFP since 2010 with a focus in Southern Yellow Pine and Ken has been with AIFP since 2017, specializing in Fir species. Both specialize in high grade lumber for the component manufacturing industry.
