PITTSBURGH, Nov. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Snavely Forest Products (“Snavely”), a wholly owned subsidiary of MacArthur Company, is pleased to announce the following employee promotions in its Texas market.

Larson, a Snavely employee for 4 years, will be responsible for all facets of the Houston branch. He is recognized for many achievements and known for his sales management expertise and general management skills from Snavely and a variety of other companies.
