Viking Forest Products works with lumber mills throughout North America and Europe to provide up to date market intel to both mills and customer. This knowledge obtained on a daily basis allows us to relay market values to our customers to help them make the correct purchasing decisions to grow their business. These relationships have been built over multiple decades and continue to grow stronger. What sets Viking apart from our competition is the personal service we provide to each customer. We strive to provide our customers with quality products, in a timely manner, and at a competitive price.  Our honest approach as well as accurate market information is what makes us valuable to our customers.
