Finewood Marketing has experienced local representatives in each main source country. They ensure that our customers have access to manufacturers with a commitment to quality, service, value and reliability. Daily contact with our representatives and suppliers enables us to inform buyers of the latest market trends, potential supply chain issues and advice on new sources, products and production methods
We actively promote and develop long-term partnerships between manufacturers and buyers. These partnerships are mutually beneficial relationships that are built upon consistent quality, regularity of orders and supplies and price competitiveness and stability. Such partnerships are also the best way to encourage suppliers to improve sustainable production and increase their turnover in certified wood.
Local representatives in main source countries carry out regular factory inspections. They also check and test the specification, quality and quantity of the product to ensure it conforms to the buyers order.
We offer a bespoke service, working with customers and manufacturers from initial design drawings and specifications through to the finished product.
Experienced and knowledgeable personnel provide buyers and suppliers with expert technical assistance when required.
We monitor our contracts on a regular basis to ensure that they are supplied on time. Regular contract reports are produced for buyers and sellers constantly updating production schedules, shipping and delivery dates.
We represent the world's top quality timber and wood product manufacturers. We also have excellent contacts with buyers from the leading timber purchasing companies in the UK, Europe, Far East and Africa. We offer a comprehensive sales service including contract negotiation, samples, drawings, trials, design, packaging, labelling and technical advice.
We have close contacts with the world's leading container transport companies. Where the buyer is responsible for transportation we can advise and organise all aspects of cost-effective sea freight, marine insurance, customs clearance, VAT duty deferment, inland haulage and container handling on their behalf.
Our dedicated finance service provides credit verifications, letters of credit, credit terms, foreign currency advice and bill discounting. These professionally delivered services underpin the relationships we foster between our customers and the manufacturers we represent.
