Conifex greatly values and appreciates our local communities and the support they provide to our company. We reciprocate this support through a commitment to maintaining sustainable and cost-effective operations.
We provide a wide range of employment opportunities for labourers, trades people, administrators and professionals alike. We purchase supplies, equipment and services locally wherever possible. Where available we utilize qualified local contractors for machine fabrication and repairs, harvesting and reforestation activities. Conifex supports local community initiatives that enhance the quality of life for all citizens and its employees.

Aboriginal Groups
Conifex has developed positive relations with local aboriginal groups and Nak’azdli, Tl’azt’en and Takla First Nations are all shareholders of Conifex. Conifex directly employs many aboriginals in its sawmills and provides additional opportunities through its contracted harvesting operations. Conifex also supplies planer trim blocks to an aboriginal owned and operated finger-joint plant in Fort St James and contracts with various aboriginal companies to provide services and products, including log procurement, harvesting and silviculture activities.
