Bessemer Plywood Corporation

About Bessemer Plywood Corporation

Bessemer Plywood Corporation runs a mill that turns logs into plywood, out of Bessemer, Michigan (their mailing address is in Ironwood). They aren't a logging crew walking your woods; they're a buyer and a mill, taking in logs harvested by independent loggers and turning them into aspen and northern softwood plywood for things like flooring, furniture frames, and house construction, plus pressure treating. What they want to buy is spelled out plainly: "We Buy Aspen, Softwood, Hardwood Timber." The logs they process come off federal, state, county, and private land across Michigan's western upper peninsula and the upper Great Lakes area, cut by independent loggers using sustainable forestry practices. For a landowner in Gogebic County with aspen or softwood on the ground, this is the kind of outfit that would be on the buying end of that wood. Log buying questions go to Jay Flynn; sales questions go through Mario Loreti. Their mill location lets them move "quick truckload shipment of highly mixed loads," which is more about how they ship product out than about what a small private seller would see, but it tells you this is a mill built for volume, not a one-man logging operation. This fits a landowner near Gogebic County with aspen or northern softwood to sell, who wants to deal with the mill itself rather than a middleman, and who is comfortable calling and asking Jay Flynn directly what size and species they're buying this year.
