@york.co.za
York Timbers is a leading integrated forestry company, operating both plantations and processing plants. We specialize in converting forest resources into high-quality lumber and plywood products. Our plantations are managed in accordance with ecologically sound practices, adhering to the strict standards set by the Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC). This certification underscores York’s commitment to sustainability, benefiting not only our people but also the surrounding communities, the environment, and our valued customers. As lumber demand in Southern Africa continues to outpace supply, York is strategically positioned for growth. By optimizing our plantations, enhancing processing efficiency, and leveraging market access through robust distribution channels, we are significantly boosting our revenue-generating capacity. With York Timbers currently trading at a substantial discount to its tangible net asset value, we present an outstanding investment opportunity for those seeking both financial returns and a stake in a responsible, future-focused business.
