Prices for West African timber products largely stable in early April
20/04/2007 - 16:38
Prices for West African timber products remained
unchanged in early April. Trade of both logs and lumber
continued steady. Cameroon mills reported firm log prices
as the major concession areas are operated by the larger
operators. Medium and small sized mills fiercely compete
for whatever limited supplies become available from the
informal logging sector. However, azobe and moabi
lumber were in short supply because of tight log supplies.
Sipo and sapelli lumber were also reported as rather scarce
due to the same reason. Overall, market activity is steady
and likely to remain stable.
