Northern BC forest in Tahltan territory

A Direct Tahltan & Nisga'a Partnership

Wild Timber Industries operates in direct partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations. Here is what that means for your project and for the communities we work in.

Wild Timber Industries is an Indigenous-partnership forestry contractor headquartered in Iskut, BC, in Tahltan territory. Our partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations is not a footnote or a logo on a slide. It shapes how we plan work, who we hire, and the standards we hold ourselves to on every project across British Columbia and Alberta.

For the mining companies, utilities, and government programs we work for, that partnership matters twice: once on the ground, where local knowledge and community relationships keep projects moving, and once in procurement, where Indigenous participation is increasingly a requirement rather than a preference.

What it means operationally

Partnership you can
see on the ground.

This is how the partnership shows up in day-to-day work, from planning through demobilization.

01

Local knowledge and access

We are based in Iskut and know the ground our clients work on: the terrain, the seasons, and the communities along the way.

02

Respect for traditional territories

We plan work with respect for the territories we operate in, and we bring the community relationships that keep programs moving.

03

Training and career pathways

We invest in training, mentorship, and youth development that build real careers for Indigenous workers in forestry, fire, and resource services.

For procurement teams

If your RFP includes Indigenous-participation or community-benefit requirements, contracting Wild Timber puts a Northern BC contractor with a direct Tahltan and Nisga'a partnership on your project, along with a workforce built through local hiring and training.

Send us the requirement language with your scope and we will tell you straight how our partnership, workforce, and training commitments fit it. You get one crew and one point of accountability, and a partner your community-relations team will not have to explain away.
