  12. China catches up with the world

  13. Straight-Forward Business Model Business segment and business model Only engaged in logging activities, with main customers being wood processing factories in China. Most of its products are used in construction, infrastructure and the furniture industries. When the company receives an order, it engages local villages nearby, or some cases professional harvesting teams, to provide harvesting services. Then the customer transports the products away to their factories to conduct further processing. Minimal working capital requirement The company’s business model gives rise to the advantage of minimal working capital. Harvest activities only begin after a customer order, leading to minimal inventory. In addition, as the company only allows customers to retrieve logs upon full payment, accounts receivable is practically zero. Experienced management team China Forestry has been operating in the forestry industry in China since 2003, the same year when the Chinese government announced the No. 9 Policy which set out the directive for the private sector to participate in China’s forestry development.
