Supplier value

Why sawmills work with Crona-Connect

Qualified requirements

We clarify dimensions, moisture, quantity, destination, timing and commercial expectations before approaching mills.

FCA and FOB accepted

Sawmills do not need to calculate ocean freight. We develop inland, port and destination comparisons.

Direct commercial feedback

We compare specification, loading volume and landed cost and advise whether an offer is commercially workable.

Controlled introductions

Buyer and supplier identities are not published publicly. Disclosure is controlled within a relevant programme.

Repeat-business focus

Our objective is not to collect price lists. We develop trial shipments into repeat container programmes.
