Market
inefficiencies hurt both buyers and sellers. Currently, timber stocks
are sold from one end of the supply chain to the other through a
variety of traditional channels.
From
manufacturer to exporter / importer, distributor and wholesaler
to stockist and retailer, suppliers can’t find enough qualified
buyers and buyers in turn can’t easily find the type of products
they want quickly and efficiently. Industries are fragmented especially
in developing countries of the south. Purchasing processes are labor
intensive and time-consuming, not to mention complex and costly,
requiring extensive travels, visits and personal relations. Gaps
in information and geography have kept buyers and sellers apart.
AsiaTimber.net’s
online marketplace creates market, value, price, and process efficiencies
by linking interested buyers and sellers through a centralized and
neutral platform where transactions occur much faster in an improved,
real world negotiation format. It brings together hundreds of pre-qualified
companies to buy and sell in over 30 timber product categories and
related industries using a flexible and borderless e-commerce platform,
helping both buyer and seller benefit from reduced process cost,
search cost, communication cost, and achieving wider market reach.

Timber trades are highly complex and therefore are best traded through
a negotiation process. AsiaTimber.net's comprehensive trading
room allows both buyer and seller to add value through their
knowledge and experience while giving each side the
|
 |
|
flexibility
to discuss openly the many cost, quality, and geographical
issues associated with each transaction, all of which affect
the true price of the item. This trading process can either
take place in real time or in “threaded loops”. The system
has been designed with adequate flexibility to let buyers
and sellers conduct business much the same way as offline,
which means little or no learning curve.
AsiaTimber.net
is an independent marketplace, therefore does not sell or
purchase, collect payments, or represent any buyer or seller.
