DELTA CEDAR —Continued from page 6<br />

Delta <strong>Forest</strong>ry Group is headquartered in Pitt Meadows, BC, where their Halo Sawmill<br />

is located.<br />

fano continued. “While the trees aren’t going away, there is going to be less of<br />

them with the changing landscape and our company is still going to thrive, with<br />

our size, management and decision-making style, we will do well in the long term<br />

as we continue to operate like a family sized business rather than a big corporation.<br />

Getting through the next few years during the industry transition will be the<br />

difficult part.”<br />

Dean DeCraene, a sales representative who has been with the company for<br />

Delta <strong>Forest</strong>ry Group offers Western Red Cedar, Douglas Fir, Alaskan Yellow Cedar<br />

and Hemlock.<br />

38 years, said, “Delta has put itself in a great position to grow. We have a young<br />

ownership group where they have some good plans for getting bigger and better<br />

and they are always looking for the next step forward. <strong>The</strong>y are not just going to<br />

sit by and be idle, there is always an opportunity out there and the train of thought<br />

in this company has been to grow it.”<br />
