Where business and humanity merge.
A place where the workers come first and excellent work become inevitable.

Imagine a situation where the workers and teams have everything they need and pretty much everything they want. Workers at front of mind.
What do you think the work is like?
And so, what do you think the customer experience is like?
This simple approach is how we serve the people, the community and our forest logistics customers.


HISTORY
In 1970 Tapio Kajavala planted trees, an honest yet humble job. Weekends he shot deer to sell. His wife was a night shift nurse. Together they put enough money aside to start KFL in Kawerau in 1972. A small, hardworking forest harvesting business.

1996 saw KFL experiment with, then, cutting-edge computer systems to maximise returns to the forest owner. These systems were best based in Log Yards rather than in forests. The positive results saw KFL shift from forest harvesting to Log Yard management and log logistics.
