Several new initiatives will be outlined to members of the growers co-operative, the Timber Marketing Group (TMG), at its annual general meeting this month.
A new flexible membership agreement and incentives for the commitment of timber will be on the agenda at the meeting to be held in north Ayrshire on July 24.
Gordon Dugan of the Timber Marketing Group said: ‘The TMG philosophy of developing vertical integration between growers and customers is bearing fruit, with a number of major customers keen to support the TMG model.’
These include Forest Garden which plans to host an open day in October to provide a platform for discussion on assured private sector timber supply and processor investment.
