Rationale for the deal

MARKET

There is always a high demand for timber logs and sawn lumber in the market. Timber is on the rise in Asia where there is high demand for species like Tali and Okan, as well as in Europe UAE and the United States, where there is demand for nearly all the other species. We here by urge would be interested in finding buyers/investors as there is a high and hot demand for timber and we are not looking to make profit by high bit but from massive output.

LIMITATIONS

The limitations we are facing as a challenge, which is a universal problem for all logging companies in Cameroon, is that the banking system here is too biased. Banks in Cameroon do not fund or promote wood logging companies even when buyers issue a letter of credit payable 100% at sight. This may be due to unscrupulous individuals who had not met up with their loans, leaving the banks in a deficit.

Use of financing

What we are looking for is an investor who will act at the same time as a buyer. BGI needs about $1,000,000 to acquire trucks, bulldozers, Lucas mill, and graders that will boast not only exploitation but also help cut off the huge amount we pay for hiring this machinery.
