Wood Transportation Services by CUF Group: Delivering Excellence, Every Mile

At Cameroon United Forest Group (CUF Group), our commitment to providing high-quality timber doesn’t end when the wood leaves the forest. It extends through every mile of its journey to your factory, port, or final destination. Our dedicated Wood Transportation Services are a critical link in our integrated supply chain, ensuring that your valuable timber products are moved efficiently, reliably, and safely.

We understand that timely and secure transportation is paramount to your project schedules and bottom line. That’s why we’ve invested significantly in our own robust logistics infrastructure and a highly skilled team, giving us unparalleled control over the entire transportation process.

Our Robust Transportation Fleet

CUF Group operates a substantial and well-maintained fleet of 40 modern trucks specifically equipped for the rigorous demands of timber transport. These vehicles are designed to handle various log sizes and sawn timber volumes, ensuring maximum payload efficiency while adhering to safety standards.

Our fleet is continuously monitored and optimized, guaranteeing that we can meet the high volume demands of our operations, delivering:

• Logs directly from our forest concessions to our Ebolowa industrial sawmill for processing.

• Processed timber (sawn lumber, decking, flooring, slabs, boards, veneers) from the sawmill to the major ports for export.

Unmatched Logistics & Maintenance

What truly sets CUF Group’s transportation services apart is our comprehensive approach to logistics and vehicle maintenance. We don’t rely on third-party workshops; we handle it all in-house:

Dedicated Technical Workshop

Located at our premises in Bonapriso, our state-of-the-art technical workshop is the backbone of our transportation reliability. This facility allows us to perform systematic and rigorous maintenance on all our trucks between trips. Our team of expert mechanics conducts:

• Routine inspections and preventative maintenance to identify and address potential issues before they become problems.

• Rapid repairs to minimize downtime and keep our fleet operational.

• Regular upgrades and servicing to ensure our vehicles meet the highest safety and performance standards.

This in-house capability means our trucks are always in peak condition, reducing unexpected breakdowns and ensuring consistent, timely deliveries.

Expert Technical Department

Our specialized Technical Department is responsible for the meticulous planning and oversight of all transportation logistics. Their responsibilities include:

• Route Optimization: Planning the most efficient and safest routes from all our forestry sites to the Ebolowa plant and to the ports of Douala and Kribi.

• Fleet Tracking & Monitoring: Real-time tracking of our trucks ensures visibility and allows for immediate response to any unforeseen circumstances.

• Load Management: Ensuring optimal and secure loading of timber to prevent damage during transit.

• Regulatory Compliance: Adhering to all national and international transportation regulations and safety protocols.

This dedicated team ensures that every load of timber is handled with the utmost care, from the moment it leaves our sites until it reaches its intended destination.

Seamless Connection to Global Markets

Our efficient transportation network is crucial for our global reach. By delivering directly to the Autonomous Port of Douala and the Port of Kribi, we ensure a smooth transition from land transport to international shipping. This seamless integration of internal logistics with port operations minimizes delays and streamlines the export process for our international clients across the GCC countries, Malaysia, Vietnam, Iraq, the Middle East, and various other Asian and European markets.
