The sustainable forest and timber management of the B.C. Government has ensured our future in wood product manufacturing and exports.

Great Show!”

-Askar Trading International, Pakistan.

“We have been participating almost every year, taking turns between myself and our staff, as BC Wood’s Extended mission & GBM is the best in the world to learn and understand about wood and wooden manufacturing and grading industry. We would have never experienced such a good mill site tour and well-organized manufacturing system, plus the diversity of value-added wooden manufacturing etc. without BC Wood’s Extended Mission Program. We are very proud we could experience all those kinds of things through BC Wood. All our staff pretty much increased their own sales self-confidence after participating in BC Wood’s event because their knowledge was increased by this mill tour and GBM. Also, we could meet many other countries wood industry people and could exchange the information afterwards. What is another best thing is that we are doing good business with newly met Korean delegates at the GBM. We would like to continue to participate Extended Mission & GBM for more learning and understanding of the wood industry. We are so thankful for BC Wood’s every effort.”
