Looking For Factory To Produce Wooden Products For Export

[koheesti]

I have a friend who currently has wooden items produced in a factory in China and exported to Russia. Items such as; wooden picture frames, wooden hangers, and kitchen stuff (cutting boards, spoons, spatulas, etc). He is open to the possibility of moving production from China to Thailand. He will be coming to Thailand in the first quarter of 2008 and is interested in contacting some factories which might qualify. As for quantity he generally buys 62 cubic meters or 24 metric tons.

Anyone know of any or can suggest where to look?

Teak - or other hardwoods for frames that would have a natural finish.

Well, that's a start.

Does anyone know of a way to find out the names and contact information?

I went to http://www.yellow.co.th/Chiangmai/YellowPages/ but couldn't find anything.

I use to ship all this sort of stuff to the UK, Pictures, frames, woodcarings, furniture etc, best place to start, is Hang dong, just outside Chaing Mai, you will get everything around this area, they will even make things to order, try this guy, he is a mate of mine, he has a shop and factory, good stuff, also he will give you contacts. I will postmark you details, in the Handicraft centre there is a shipping office that will sort shipping etc out for you, girls name is Noi.

As for teak wood, make sure that the manufacturer has all licenses for export in place! They might tell you all "no problem, no problem" but in fact it is!
