VTV.vn - Although the regulations on trade and legal exploitation of timber have just been approved under the umbrella of the VPA/ FLEGT, Vietnamese wood businesses have already prepared documents that clearly show the origin of their wood products.

According to the General Department of Forestry, there are more than 4,000 enterprises in the wood industry and 340 craft villages. Together, they employ millions of workers that have an export processing capacity of up to 25 million cubic meters of wood each year. The FLEGT license will allow Vietnamese wood products to reach the European market, which shows that Vietnamese wood brands can sell a lot of products in this market and in many other markets around the world.
