Earlier in his career, Frohn worked as Timber Marketing Manager for Forest Capital Partners in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where he assisted with acquisition due diligence, the implementation of supply agreements and managed relationships with more than 30 mills to provide markets for more than 100 MMBF of timber harvested from the company’s timberland.
“Greg has served the forest products industry in a variety of roles over his career,” said Peter Coutu, Director of North American Sales at Forest2Market. “We’re pleased to welcome Greg, whose in-depth knowledge of the supply chain will serve our customers and prospects in the Northwest well.”
“Forest2Market’s goal is to provide transaction-based data and analytics to those in the forest products industry so they can make confident business decisions and measure the results of those decisions.
