SUMMIT FORESTS

Summit Forests is a 100% owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation. In March 2013 Summit entered the New Zealand forestry industry through the purchase of a 36,000 hectare Forest Estate in Northland. Since then, Summit has continued to invest in New Zealand forestry, growing into additional regions through a careful planned acquisition strategy, and is now the seventh largest forestry business in New Zealand. Summit is vertically integrated through forest management, harvest management, forest ownership, and somewhat uniquely, also having its own in-house export department that is linked to the wider Sumitomo Corporation group... We support the local forestry eco-system through planting, thinning, roading, harvesting, transporting, loading, and logistics.
