Different products. Different applications. One connected industry.

Wood products play a much bigger role in the built environment than many people realize.

From heavy-duty packaging and transportation to concrete forming, manufacturing, and material handling, wood products are used across industries to move, protect, support, and build what comes next.

At FCTG, we trade the materials that help keep industries moving.

This year's Intern Social included a trip to Topgolf, giving interns the opportunity to connect with their peers, traders, and the FCTG team.

Building relationships is an important part of the internship experience, and spending time together outside the office helps create connections that last well beyond the summer. Because internships are about learning, growing—and having fun, too!

Last week, we brought together interns from AIFP, Buckeye Pacific, and Plateau Forest Products for our annual Intern Social—a chance to connect across companies and gain a broader understanding of Forest City Trading Group.

Throughout the event, interns sharpened their presentation skills by pitching ideas, connecting with peers, and sitting down with company leadership to learn more about the forest products industry and the opportunities it offers.

We're excited to see the impact this talented group will make throughout the rest of the summer!

Today, on National Logistics Day, it’s worth recognizing something the transportation and supply chain industry rarely gets enough credit for: continuity under pressure.

In an environment shaped by shifting demand, capacity constraints, labor dynamics, and evolving trade conditions, logistics professionals are doing more than moving freight - they’re actively rebuilding reliability in real time.

For senior leaders, traders, and partners, resilience now looks different than it did a few years ago. It’s no longer about optimizing a single lane or asset class. Instead, it's about:

- Designing flexibility into networks, not just efficiency
- Making faster, better-informed decisions with incomplete data
- Strengthening partnerships that can adapt, not just perform in stable conditions
- Investing in visibility that turns disruption into response time

Behind every shipment is a system that succeeds only when people, processes, and decisions stay aligned, even when conditions don't. Today we recognize that work. Not because it’s easy, but because it’s essential.

Did you know?

Back in the 1920s, Forest City was among the first to market prepackaged, built-on-location garage units to meet growing housing demand.

Innovation has always been part of our story — and it continues to shape how we serve the building materials industry today.

Most supply chains may look linear on paper, but in reality, they rely on coordination across countless moving parts and decision points.

Traders help navigate this complexity—aligning information, timing, inventory, and ex*****on as building products move from source to end use.

A tree that was never meant to be cut down. In Japan, there’s a 600-year-old forestry technique that sounds almost impossible.

It’s called daisugi.

Instead of harvesting a tree, foresters prune it in a way that forces new, perfectly straight trunks to grow upward from the original base. With this method, one tree can become a continuous source of timber
