Some interesting facts and information regarding the timber industry in Panama.
Timber is one of the safest steady growth sector opportunities available in the market today. Panama’s tropical climate and its economic and geopolitical position in international trade, transportation, and shipping makes it uniquely well suited for the development of sustainable tropical timber projects.

Advantages of Teak as a Timber Investment
Of all the tropical hardwood species, perhaps among all tree species, teak holds a particular fascination for both consumers and investors, much as gold does among the precious metals. Valued for more than 2,000 years as an extraordinarily durable construction timber in its native range in Asia, teak is now coveted worldwide. Its extremely high dimensional stability and unique aesthetic qualities keep it in high demand for shipbuilding and fine furniture manufacturing. Teak is also well suited for door and window frames and any other applications that require a strong, stable, durable hardwood.
As the sustainable supply of teak from natural forests in Asia diminishes, demand for teak increases, and teak prices rise, we expect to see expanded production of teak from Panamanian forests.

A tropical teak forest situated on the sunny shores of Panama can provide investors 15 to 20 percent returns on profits from timber and carbon credit sales through companies that offer a selection of investment options.
Most timber investment companies in Panama focus on teak trees, which are a hardwood cash crop, producing high yields in a short amount of time. However, some companies expand beyond teak.

Panama is one of few places in the world where high quality teak trees grow. Burma (Myanmar) has long been a large supplier of teak to international markets, but the political unrest, coupled with the fact that the Burmese military regime owns every teak plantation in the country, means the supply from Burma may be unstable.
