Secondary manufacturing of solid wood products in Saskatchewan and Manitoba 2017 : structure and economic contribution / Lili Sun, Bryan E.C. Bogdanski, and Baojing Sun.: Fo143-2/449E-PDF

"This report presents survey results for Saskatchewan (SK) and Manitoba (MB)'s secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2017. The survey is part of the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) survey program on secondary wood manufacturing products across Canada; it compiles operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Most firms were in the south of the provinces where the population and demand for those products is concentrated. We estimated that SK's secondary wood manufacturing industries employed 2,201 people and had sales of $305 million. MB's secondary wood manufacturing industries were more than double the size of those in SK with 4,887 employees and $714 million sales. For both SK and MB, the majority of sales were within the provinces. Markets for MB products were more diverse with 35% exported to the rest of Canada and 13% to the United States. Of the responding firms, 41% in MB and 19% in SK hoped to expand operations, although firms reported several barriers to expansion plans. Market issues were identified as the most pressing challenges facing the industry in both provinces"--Abstract, page v.
