At home around the world, International Forest Products (IFP) has become a leader in the international forest products trade. It is a company in which "think global, act local" is more than just a working philosophy. It is a way of life. IFP&＃039;s understanding of local customs, currencies and business practices are essential to its mission-which is to provide world class service in sourcing and marketing forest products worldwide. To accomplish this mission, IFP provides solutions for sales and marketing, transportation and logistics, and finance for suppliers and converters in the forest products industry. In addition, they provide expertise as well as professional advice on the technical and legal considerations of a transaction. IFP works with suppliers and customers as a true business partner, in reality and not just in name, and brings to the boardroom table a distinct advantage over competitors of comparable size and clout. As one of the few remaining privately owned, family operated international forest product companies, IFP is structured to operate seamlessly with a client. Without corporate borders to interfere with good decision making. Without management boundaries to restrict the exchange of new ideas. And without stockholders and investors to limit vision and growth. Customary for the company, IFP offers a world of possibilities.
