Representatives from nine French wood companies and organizations
arrived in Charleston Thursday evening for a six-day tour of West
Virginia's wood products industry.
The 15 trip participants, including a sales representative from a
Japanese homebuilding company with a sales office in Charleston, will
meet with people involved with West Virginia's economic development,
government and the wood products industry.
Today, they're headed to the Earl Ray Tomblin Conference Center in
Logan to learn about West Virginia, the state's wood industry and
some area wood companies. Group members will also tour the Wood
Products Industrial Park and Columbia Flooring in Mingo County.
