The company, registered in Bermuda and listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, signed a conditional agreement for the acquisition of the entire share capital of JWC Romwood from the Austrian group JW Cappelen, a transaction valued at EUR 2.286 mln.

The factory has a production capacity of up to 8,000 cubic meters of timber per year and approximately 36 employees.

Subsequently, the company opened a wood processing plant and a distribution hub, both located in Oituz, Covasna County.
