Headquartered in Tema, Ghana, we support both local and international customers with timber exports, oil & gas, and other commodities. Our timber sourcing covers Eastern, Ashanti, Northern and Brong-Ahafo regions and we ship to markets such as India and Vietnam.
Our Vision
Our vision is to make timber and trade more accessible while building a dependable and sustainable business for our partners.
Service Profile
We work with partners in transport, oil & gas and related industries to buy, sell and export commodities like gold, cashew nuts, shea nuts and timber. Our timber exports include Papao, Teak and Tarli wood.
Papao Wood & Raw Timber Trade
We export Papao wood (Doussie) to buyers in Asia. Shipments are typically prepared in 20-foot containers with logs around 40cm in diameter and 2.7–2.8m in length. Logs are sourced from Brong Ahafo and Northern regions, then moved to Tema Port for export to countries such as India and Vietnam.
Demand for Timber & Gold
Timber demand remains strong in markets like Vietnam, China and India. Gold also remains in demand in Europe and the Middle East, including Australia and Dubai. We keep market needs in mind as we plan shipments and product sourcing.
Our gold trade is supported by transparent documentation and careful handling. This allows us to deliver quality and trust to buyers across export markets.
