Summit Forests New Zealand Limited (Summit Forests) is a New Zealand registered subsidiary company of Sumitomo Corporation Japan and Sumitomo Australia PTY LTD. In March 2013 Summit purchased the former Juken New Zealand Limited Forest Estate (36,000 ha) within Northland. All local staff and contracts transferred across to the new company, bringing with them 24 years’ experience managing these forests. In order to ensure the full value of our products is captured, Summit developed a dedicated log exporting department which links into the already well-established Sumitomo Corporation trading business. The log exporting department is directly linked into Sumitomo Corporation’s extensive international business networks and allows Summit to fully realise the value of the estate in addition to the existing domestic supply. Summit, in close partnership with Sumitomo Corporation, has a well-established and very successful Export Department with access to reliable markets throughout Asia. The log exporting department is directly linked into Sumitomo Corporation’s extensive international business networks. Sumitomo Corporation has well-established log marketing teams based in all its major export markets. This close proximity to our customers allows Sumitomo, and in turn Summit to build and maintain solid relationships with all our customers. Not only does Summit export volume from our own estate and managed forests, but we provide complete logistic and marketing options for your logs with the aim of maximising your profit.
