Trade Mission Forest Products to North Carolina & Tennessee

Connecting European buyers with the timber heart of the U.S. South
From September 21–26, 2025, SUSTA (Southern United States Trade Association), together with the Departments of Agriculture of North Carolina and Tennessee, will host a trade mission for European timber importers.

Participants will visit leading sawmills in both states and take part in one-on-one B2B meetings with carefully selected suppliers from the U.S. South. The program offers a unique opportunity to build new business relationships, explore market opportunities, and experience the timber industry on location.
