Russian producers of forest products suffer losses after the start of the NWO
Everything affects: the closure of the European market, the global fall in the price of timber and the rise in the cost of logistics.
According to Baza’s sources, the share of sales of some companies in European markets before the outbreak of hostilities in Ukraine reached 95%. For example, in Germany, Siberian larch was highly quoted (its wood can get wet and not collapse) – some enterprises produced products, the dimensions of which were tailored to specific customers.
After the start of the special operation, Russian companies had difficulties with logistics, including because many foreign transport workers left Russia. There is an option to send goods to Europe through Turkey, but manufacturers are afraid to do so, because the products are expensive, and no one gives guarantees that they will reach.
The owner of the Irkutsk company Irbis, Grigory Vorontsov, in an interview with Baza, said that his company’s revenue has fallen four times in recent months, and logistics has risen in price by about the same amount. For example, delivery to the PRC could previously be arranged for 80 thousand rubles, but now it will cost 320. Vorontsov also points out that in parallel the price of timber has fallen on the world market and there is also a crisis in the industry there.
As a result, Russian producers oriented towards Western markets involuntarily switch to domestic trade, where they face overwhelming competition. As a result, companies are forced to cut salaries and reduce staff. hzikhidtidekrt employees.
