Description
Campbell River is the hub for the coastal forest industry on Northern Vancouver Island, serving both public and private forest lands and an access point for experienced labour and forest industry contractors as well as business and sector support services within the region.
Forestry has been an influential industry in Campbell River’s economy for decades and continues to be an economic driver. New opportunities exist in manufacturing and through the creation of new products using wood and other forest products.
The region has well established infrastructure, including an extensive network of logging roads, air and water links, such as a deep sea water port and access to affordable gas and hydro power, to support the forestry industry.
Forestry has been identified as one of the priority growth industries in the BC Provincial Jobs Plan.
