Hampton Lumber & Family Forests has completed the purchase of approximately 18,000 acres of timberland from a fund managed by Campbell Global, LLC in Southwest Washington. These high-quality, well-managed forestlands are located in Pacific and Wahkiakum counties in close proximity to lands currently owned by Hampton. These timberlands will provide immediate and long-term fiber supply for Hampton’s sawmills in Warrenton, Oregon and Washington’s Cowlitz Valley.
“All of our forestlands represent a strategic investment in the future of our mills,” says Hampton Lumber CEO, Steve Zika. “We believe that purchases like this, combined with continued investment in our sawmill infrastructure and our people, will help keep us successful for the next 80 years.”
Hampton Lumber is a fourth-generation, family-owned company which operates ten sawmills in Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia and markets wood products all over the world.
