About US

Anwi Symplace TM was officially born on the 28 of August 1995. We are is involved in logging, wood processing and trading. we started with few forestry employees under the management of one person. The company acquires forests as a subcontractor, which enables it to produce 2,000 m3 of wood per month in the first year. It obtained its first sale of cut in 1997. That year, its turnover reached 200 million CFA francs by selling its production exclusively to the local market.

Today, Anwi Symplace TM has 900 employees in its ranks, divided between the 7 farms it owns in the South Cameroon region (5 in its own right, 2 in partnership), the Ebolowa industrial sawmill and the Management, located in Douala. In 2018, Anwi Symplace  produced 220,000 m3 of logs. Its turnover exceeds 16 billion CFA francs.

Exploitation

We own 5 Forest Management Units (UFA) located in the South Cameroon region. To these are added two other concessions, the fruit of a partnership.
Out of 352,534 hectares in area, approximately 10,500 hectares are harvested each year.
we produce an average of 18,000 m 3 of logs per month, 60% of which are processed in the Ebolowa sawmill. The remaining part is exported in the form of logs or delivered locally to partner companies. In 2017, ATG produced 220,146 m3 of wood.

Transport

We own 47 trucks that takes care of delivering the logs either to the factory or to the ports of Douala and Kribi.

we own our own technical workshop in Bonapriso, and therefore ensures the systematic maintenance of the trucks between trips.

The Technical Department takes care of the logistics and the follow-up of the trucks in all the forestry sites as well as at the Ebolowa plant.

Transformation

we have 3 sawing lines in our Ebolowa sawmill, the last having been installed in June 2016. Its production capacity can thus reach 5000m3 of cuts per month. 80% is for export. 400 people work on the transformation of the 42 species of wood exploited. The wood is cut into planks or dried and planed to be ready for the construction of terraces, saunas.
