Sawn softwood and softwood log imports to China continued to grow in 2017. Finland is one of the leading exporters together with Russia, Canada, Sweden and New Zealand. Finnish companies have a very good reputation as reliable suppliers and Chinese customers are prepared to pay more for imported Finnish high quality products than for locally produced.
Join Mr. Jari Leppä, Minister of Agriculture and Forestry and discover the business opportunities China has to offer.
The delegation visit will be organized together with Wood from Finland program, which is managed by Business Finland. The program will continue to support its member companies after the visit in the target market.
Sustainability, source efficiency and efforts for improving the quality of wood products in China are the main reasons why Chinese wood trading and industrial companies choose Finnish sawn spruce and pine products.
