This weekend’s Guyana Timber Expo will focus on the use of lesser known wood species as well as how best to cut them, the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) said at the launching of the three-day event yesterday afternoon.
Commencing from 4:30 pm tomorrow, the tarmac of the Guyana National Stadium, Providence, is expected to be packed with patrons and stakeholders of the forestry sector, as some 30 exhibitors will showcase their services, techniques and products under the theme “Expanding Markets for Guyanese Timber Products Through Public Education, Awareness and Sensitisation to Promote a Greener Guyana”.
According to Kenny David, Manager of the Forest Products Development Marketing Council of the GFC, they strongly believe that the country has the quality of products to satisfy not only the local market, but also the international market.
