| Research Abstract |
Retail sawmilling is commonly seen in small- and medium-sized sawmillers, and is characterized by orientation to the local market, small production lots for multiple products, and direct sales to small local builders. Retail sawmilling is spread nationwide and plays an important role in the local society/economy through enhancing the function of the house-building-materials supply chain by supplementing market defects and insufficiencies. However, in the 1990s, large-scale house builders and machine-precutters began to expand their businesses to the local market. This helped create a well-developed lumber distribution system and put pressure on the existing local system. The number of small sawmills decreased dramatically, and at the same time, many began supplying to distant lumber distributors instead of small local builders.
