Governor Ralph Northam announced that Mountain Top Timber Products, LLC will invest $3.76 million into a long-abandoned industrial building in the Town of Dungannon, Virginia.
The project will expand the company’s wood chipping operations and add a new sawmill and dry kiln capacity. All told, over the next three years, Mountain Top Timber Products will create 50 new jobs above the county’s prevailing wage and will commit to purchase over $14 million of Virginia-grown timber from area loggers and forestland owners.
“Mountain Top Timber Products is a locally grown company, and we are excited about the opportunity to revive the facility in the Dungannon area,” said Neal Stidham, Managing Member, Mountain Top Timber Products, LLC. “These will be good forestry related jobs for this area. We appreciate the Commonwealth, the region, and Scott County in their partnership with us on this project.”
