(IPPNZ) was formed in 2009 to primarily trade in logs and toprovide logistics services into the Asia Pacific, Indian and otherMarkets. We also offer services to would be forest buyers inNew Zealand helping them to find, analyse and ultimately securestumpage (standing trees) which are ready or near ready forharvest. After any successful stumpage acquisition we alsooffer management services to the new owner(s) if these arerequired.The company has a small highly experienced team of staff, withoffices in Auckland, Tauranga and Gisborne in New Zealand.Our log export volumes are currently running at 120,000 JASm3annually, with a stable supply group that includes a number ofsignificant forest owners and management companies.Export operations in New Zealand are concentrated out of the NorthIsland ports of Auckland and Tauranga but we also ship from otherports like Napier and Wellington from time to time.Our shipping is primarily performed by the use of standard shippingcontainers and via this method we can offer solutions to almost anyport in Asia, India and the Middle East. Our shipping frequency canbe as often as weekly if required and the minimum order quantity(MOQ) is 10 x 40'containers per consignment so a relatively smallvolume of logs compared to the typical "bulk vessel" option. By using shipping containers our customers require significantlyless capital invested in logs at any one time and due to shippingfrequency lower log inventories are required at the destination(s)also. We strive to meet our customer’s demands and through our log supplybase and the shipping solution that we use can ensure a regular,efficient and cost effective result for all parties.
