Kalesnikoff’s initial Mass Timber facility, located in South Slocan, launched in 2019 with 60 jobs and now employs 160. The existing Kalesnikoff sawmill in Thrums will provide a continuous and secure local fiber supply.
Kalesnikoff is a fourth-generation, family-owned, West Kootenay based company founded 85 years ago.
