The lumber industry: where tradition and innovation meet

Some of Gesco-Star’s production units have been in operation since the 1950s. These sites were witness to the evolution of Canada’s rich logging tradition. The practices may have changed a bit, but the industry is still alive and well!

Logging will always exist: responsibly harvesting mature trees ensures healthy forest management while meeting human needs.

Together, Gesco-Star’s member companies have over 250 employees… and counting! They offer stimulating and stable jobs at a competitive salary. A variety of positions are available: administrative work, woodshop work, transportation, sales and brokerage. Welcome, potential candidates!
