The Turman Group: What We Do
The Turman Group has become synonymous around the world for one thing: “high-quality forestry products.” Multiple businesses within The Turman Group employ more than 500 people throughout Virginia. They pride themselves in being environmentally responsible stewards in the forestry products industry.
Involved in every step of the forestry process, from felling the timber, transporting it to the sawmill, and milling it to fit specific domestic or export needs, The Turman Group manufactures all grades of lumber including furniture grade, hardwood flooring, kiln-dried lumber, veneer logs, and pallet stock. Home-heating wood pellets and hardwood mulch produced from by-products are also available.
Worldwide Lumber Supplier
The Turman Group is a vertically integrated set of wood products companies that range from the southwestern corner of Virginia to the center of the Commonwealth. In 2006, Turman did 80% of its business domestically. Five years later, the domestic-international split was approximately 50-50%; in 2016, 70% of sales were exports.
“Once everyone saw the opportunity, it was all hands on deck,” Wil Brush said. “From the woods to the port, everyone got on board, which is ultimately what it takes to be successful in the export business.”
Supporting the Southwest Virginia Economy
With multiple locations and a variety of positions, The Turman Group is always looking for new talent to join several hundred employees in Southwest Virginia.
We have many different positions, ranging from entry-level to skilled labor, and there is always room for growth. A positive attitude and a good work ethic are key to success within our organization.
