The company operates pine harvesting operations and harvests around 400,000 tonnes annually, along with multiple transport operations that run 24/7.
Fennell Forestry's success is rooted in a forward-thinking approach that prioritises safety, growth, and respect for employees.
Managing Director Wendy Fennell is a key figure in this effort, with over three decades of experience working alongside long-serving staff members in all aspects of the family business.
