Southern Timber Company was a Robloxian timber company which was one of the largest logging and lumber manufacturing firms in southern North Bloxifornia, operating from the late 19th century until the mid-20th century. The company was founded in 1885 by industrialist James W. Calloway, and played a crucial role in the economic expansion of Driftwood County and surrounding regions. The company was initially established to gain resources the vast forests of Driftwood County, and later rapidly grew into a large company in the timber industry, supplying raw and processed wood to construction projects, furniture makers, and railroad companies across the state.
During its peak in the early 20th century, the Southern Timber Company owned multiple sawmills, logging camps, and over 250,000 kilometres square of forest land in Driftwood County. The company’s operations were heavily dependent on the Driftwood County Railway, which helped transport various essential resources. The Bobaria Mill, the company's largest facility, became a place for timber processing, employing hundreds of workers. The town of Bobaria itself grew around the mill, with many of its early settlers being loggers and mill workers. Other major mills were located in Driftwood Forest and Blox Center, producing lumber for both local use and export to larger cities like South City.
The company’s logging methods were considered to be aggressive, leading to a high deforestation in some areas. By the 1940s, concerns over environmental impact and resource depletion led to the introduction of early conservation policies. The company did not do much sustainable practices and at the same time demand for timber in the area began to decline due to economic shifts, regulations and decrease in population around the areas. The Driftwood Logging Act of 1956, which placed restrictions on logging activities in certain regions, severely impacted the operations, forcing Southern Timber Company decline. There were no sustainable ways that the company desired to implement, which lead to the company’s eventual closing in 1964.
