Year after year, CEO students say that touring Southern Truss Company is one of their favorite experiences, and today proved exactly why!

Our class met with Tyler Rumsey, who gave us an inside look at how Southern Truss stays efficient and profitable. He shared insights into grade rules, lumber grades, and how the team measures productivity by thinking in terms of square feet per hour. It was a fascinating peek into smart operational strategy in action.

And the best part… students even got to build their own mini truss! Learning is always more fun when you get to use both your head and your hands.

Thank you, Southern Truss, for another unforgettable visit! πŸ‘πŸ½πŸ”¨πŸ“
