The passion for the lumber industry has been passed down from one generation to the next. Today, Trio is run by Jerry Lilly and Tina South, a father and daughter partnership that is nothing short of a dynamic duo.<\/p>\n

Jerry and Tina both reminisce on their time spent at lumber yards as children. At 10 years old, they were stacking wood. At 16, Tina graduated to the office and Jerry was driving trucks. Being raised around lumber, Jerry and Tina both learned the lumber and building supplies industry the right way, through hands-on work.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe learned by doing\u201d and today that same approach continues to ring true as the next generation of lumber legacy.<\/p>\n

Pre-1970: Jerry’s childhood<\/h3>\n

Far before Trio Forest Products Inc. opened its doors, founder Jerry was spending most of his days around lumber. Jerry grew up at Fish Sawmill, instilling in him a passion for lumber and timber from a young age.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide _builder_version=”4.19.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n

1970: Jerry began at Trio Sales<\/h3>\n

Jerry officially started his lumber career working for Trio Forest Products Inc., known as Trio Sales at the time. He would deliver lumber for Trio Sales in the afternoons and sell lumber on the side from the back of his truck in the mornings. Jerry still loves driving our trucks and making deliveries to this day.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide _builder_version=”4.19.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n

1979: Trio Forest Products Inc. began <\/h3>\n

After a few years of selling lumber on the side, Jerry accumulated enough earnings and experience to take the reigns. Jerry bought Trio Sales and turned it into Trio Forest Products Inc. in 1979.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide _builder_version=”4.19.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n

1984: Tina South started working full time <\/h3>\n

Jerry Lilly’s daughter, Tina South, also grew up around the lumber industry. She was working in the yard and stacking wood at 10. At 16, Tina graduated to working full time at the offices for Trio Forest Products Inc.<\/p>\n

2007: Trio expands and Tina becomes President <\/h3>\n

2007 was a big year for Trio. Tina became the President of the company, as she is today. Trio also received the opportunity to improve operations by purchasing railhead property for carloads of lumber products to flow freely into Trio’s yard.<\/p>\n

2021: Dawson became partners with Jerry and Tina <\/h3>\n

Starting with Jerry, Trio Forest Products Inc. has three generations of lumber expertise. Dawson has become a part owner of Trio Forest Products Inc. Tina, Jerry, and Dawson now form the dynamic trio and keep the legacy alive, maintaining Trio’s title as family owned and operated.<\/p>\n

The traits of every great founder resonate throughout the company they built. Trio was founded on hard work, strong character, ethics, and a ‘get it done’ mentality. It’s no secret that Jerry grew up around lumber and developed a passion for the industry at a young age. He started his career by selling lumber from the back seat of a car in the morning and driving a delivery truck in the afternoon. He eventually bought the lumber company he worked for, and today it is Trio Forest Products Inc.<\/p>\n

After over 50 years in the business, one of his favorite things to do is to jump in a truck and make a personal delivery to our customers. He is the visionary for Trio, he is respected by everyone, he is committed to passing his legacy of lumber onto future generations of Trio, and he continues to get it done!<\/p>\n

<\/i>Every year Trio Forest Products Inc. asks each one of our employees to select a charity, near and dear to their heart. Then, Trio makes a donation on their behalf. At Trio, we align our interests with our employees, bringing us all together. It makes it more personal and feels good to know that Trio cares about what they care about. Together, we believe that we can make a difference.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Together, We Can End Hunger” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#ffffff” background_enable_color=”on” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]Every year Trio Forest Products Inc. partners with their employees and the United Food Bank to end hunger. In the last few years, we have provided over 11,165 meals to our local community.<\/p>\n

We were first introduced to the United Foodbank by one of our customers. Now, every chance we get, we spread the word to our employees, families, vendors, and customers to join us in stopping hunger.<\/p>\n

Take a moment to learn about<\/a> this amazing organization.<\/p>\n

With only a $20 donation, you can keep a child fed for over a month.<\/p>\n

We also donate to Matthew\u2019s Crossing Food Bank.<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s not uncommon to see food drive boxes stacking up around Trio.

Together, with our employees’ helping hands, we bought, built, and delivered six new bicycles to families in our community. This giving day came from the hearts of our front office staff and everyone joined in to make it happen.<\/p>\n

As a company, we also help pack food together for Feed My Starving Children. Giving can be contagious!

Each year, Trio donates a few thousand dollars to Child Crisis Arizona<\/a> with the mission of strengthening families and children in need. Family education, emergency children’s shelters, foster care, and counseling are just a few services that Child Crisis Arizona brings to our community. We at Trio understand the power that a strong, safe family can bring. We want to ensure others get to understand the support of a healthy family as well.<\/p>\n

Sustaining our environment is crucial if we want to continue to have access to the water, materials, and resources they offer. As a building material supplier, we recognize our duty to preserve forests for future generations. Luckily, most of the lumber products we sell come from trees. In fact, we deal in a product that is 100% renewable, recyclable, reusable, and the best biodegradable building material on the market.<\/p>\n

Today, advanced technology allows us to use every part of the tree for products. In addition to lumber and paper coming from the trunk of the tree, bark resins, cellulose, scraps, and even sawdust are turned into products that range from camera cases to medicines or drugs.<\/p>\n

We support forest sustainability by only choosing lumber mills that invest in overall forest growth, quality, and productivity. The mills we work with are committed to encouraging forest health and productivity research.<\/p>\n
