About Us

Proudly Local and
Built on Community

ELCO is proud of its record of continuous employment and long-standing connection to the local community. Today, ELCO provides employment for 50 local people and works alongside many valued community partners. Our team is dedicated, safety-conscious, and deeply rooted in the surrounding area.

We operate a single shift from Monday to Friday and produce approximately 30 million board feet of spruce lumber annually, including a small volume of hemlock.

ELCO is proud of its long-standing commitment to full-time, year-round employment. Many members of our team have built decades-long careers with the company.

Our Operation

We manufacture premium spruce random-length lumber and premium spruce decking products. Our sawmill generates by-products including wood chips, sawdust, and hogged bark, while our planer mill produces planer shavings and trim ends.

We manage 30,000 acres of privately owned forest land in support of responsible operations and proudly support local suppliers. Our long-standing customer base spans Nova Scotia and extends to Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Ontario, Quebec, and the United States. ELCO’s production is exclusively brokered by Eacan Timber, a partnership that has spanned more than 35 years.

ELCO operates with a long-term perspective — balancing responsible resource management, operational consistency, and meaningful community connections. Our approach is grounded in steady leadership, practical experience, and a commitment to doing things the right way.
