We make in-roads.

The Paper and Forest Industry Transportation Committee (PFITC) is a non-profit, action group that helps North America-based paper and forest product companies address their logistics and transportation challenges.

PFITC was founded in 2002 when industry leaders came together to cement the value and benefit of collaboration and communication between our respective companies.

The purpose of our organization is to:

  • Increase the service and safety of all modes of transportation domestically and globally.

  • Improve the quality and quantity of equipment available to service our customers.

  • Ensure that the North American paper and forest products industry remains competitive throughout the world.

Vision

Our vision is to provide representatives of the Paper and Forest Industry with the forum to maximize awareness of transportation industry dynamics; to be informed and knowledgeable about regulatory and legislative developments; and to interact with suppliers so that the transportation needs specific to our industry are met on a consistent basis.
