Who We Are
With more than 20 years of hands-on experience in the West African timber trade, GabonBois bridges the gap between Gabon's finest forests and the world's most active wood markets. We specialise in consistent, high-volume supply of premium Gabonese hardwoods into Asia — working directly with professional sawmills to deliver quality you can rely on.
Over two decades of deep-rooted expertise sourcing premium hardwoods from Gabon and across West Africa. Our longevity in the market reflects the trust we've earned from suppliers, sawmills, and buyers alike.
We reliably deliver large-scale shipments to the world's most active wood-importing markets — China, India, and Vietnam. Our buyers count on us for uninterrupted supply, month after month, year after year.
We work directly with and on behalf of Gabon's leading professional sawmills. Every shipment is quality-controlled, properly graded, and processed to international export standards before it leaves the country.
From forest concession to port of arrival, our end-to-end logistics and documentation ensure smooth, transparent transactions for clients worldwide — regardless of destination or order size.
Our deep knowledge of Gabonese export regulations, FLEGT licensing, and international shipping ensures every container is fully compliant and delivered on schedule to any major port.
We believe in long-term partnerships, not one-off deals. Many of our clients have worked with us for over a decade, relying on our integrity, market insight, and commitment to fair pricing.
