Gilkey Lumber Company, Inc.
About Gilkey Lumber Company, Inc.
Gilkey's representatives are Registered Foresters in both North and South Carolina, an unusual credential for a business filed under timber buyers rather than consultants, and the company offers landowners a free timberland and harvest assessment through a request form on its contact page. Founded in 1954 by Jess Parton and still family-owned, it manufactures hardwood lumber for the furniture, flooring and specialty wood product trades; the Rutherford County economic development office describes it as having grown into an international supplier. Its buying ground is wider than the county list on this page - the company says it purchases standing timber and offers forestry assistance across western North Carolina, upstate South Carolina and eastern Tennessee, and works within state Best Management Practices for water quality.
