DESCRIPTION
Bosques Tropicales Bolivia S.A. main activity is the
development of forestry plantations for wood export and
industrial supply. This activity is highly efficient and
competitive compared to a natural forest, with a positive
social and environmental impact. In that sense, we have
the capacity to supply added value wood which is both
socially and environmentally friendly.
What do we offer?
Bosques Tropicales Bolivia offers you an option for
diversifying your investments with a high yield in a
sustainable and ethical way: tropical wood.
The idea is to participate in the business of producing
high-economic return wood by purchasing tropical wood
trees grown on plantations. The investment includes the
maintenance and care services required to ensure the
best quality wood for each productive cycle.
There is a two-fold source of benefits: the client/owner
of the trees profits from the natural growth of the trees
and, in addition, can expect a higher return due to the
revalorization of the price of tropical wood in international
markets.
Bosques Tropicales Bolivia is not only the sole Bolivian
company to use state of the art Bio Technology but is
also the oldest and most experienced in the field.
