Since its very beginnings, Horizon has recognized the critical role procurement has in being able to provide a high quality, highly desirable product. Thirty years of experience has taught where to turn to find the best producers and suppliers. Horizon’s familiarity with the geography and topography of their often traveled buying area provides a clear understanding of the subtleties in quality and species dictated by how mother nature has impacted different parts of the country. The fact that the Horizon leaders were born, raised, live and are raising their own families in the heart of the American Black Cherry belt of NW Pennsylvania only helps to strengthen their bonds with the forest and the special commodity that it produces.

Over time there have been significant changes in log buying habits throughout the industry. Today, when relationships between buyers and suppliers are not so firmly entrenched, financial strength is being questioned and buyers are asking for terms, Horizon still “carries the checkbook.” They pride themselves in paying fair prices on the spot. Horizon works hard at being a good partner.

One of the blessings of such fine tuned procurement skills is the ability to buy larger volumes than is needed for their own production. As a result, Horizon has become a valuable source for others to fill their log buying needs. Buying logs from Horizon is a world removed from buying directly from the source. It is still very common for Horizon’s buyers to go to the forest, and face the elements – rain, snow, mud or mosquitoes, to say nothing of dealing with the challenges of sorting through improperly prepared parcels or the logistics of trucking from remote locations. Fortunately, the buying experience for the log buyer who does his purchasing from Horizon is totally different. Horizon listens to their customers and establishes a good understanding of their needs. Because of this special interest, they are able to preselect according to the individual desires of the customer. Assistance is provided for all aspects of the sale. Logs are freshly prepared and laid out on a clean, asphalt work surface for the ultimate final inspection. Freight logistics and payment can be arranged directly through the Horizon office. Horizon pampers their buyers.
