Louis Nguyen – Area Manager

Hi everyone, I am Louis Nguyen – Area Manager of K-Timber. We may or may not know each other in the wood industry, however, I hope that you can have a deeper insight into me as well as my career in the wood industry through this story. This is where I talk about the moment my passion for wood started until now, please read and let me know what you think. And also, can you please share your own story with me? Thank you very much.

A Passion for Wood: My Story from Vietnam to Angola

My story begins from my childhood. My father is a famous wood trader in the Vietnamese and international wood industry and he works with many international customers. While my friends always love to explore nature and play, I am a little different. Because my house’s near Hai Phong port (one of the largest cargo ports in Vietnam), I often go to the port with my father to see the imported wood containers being prepared for opening. I love the feeling when large trees with diverse species are loaded into containers for international export, it is really attractive. Besides, my father taught me a lot of things, from how to distinguish different types of wood, the applications of wood to how to process wood to create the best products.

In 2010, I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Rossi, a Vietnamese in Angola. After a few conversations, I realized that we shared the same passion for wood and the desire to develop the wood export industry in this faraway country. With constant efforts, I officially became the regional manager of K-Timber. Now, I am very confident in the type of wood I provide to customers, they even have access to better, more stable wood at only 20% of the previous price.

Previously, I was in the domestic timber business with my family. The transition from a domestic timber trader to an international timber trader was of course difficult, because I understand that each country has different import regulations, even different tastes. But anyway, I think the core point here is the values ​​I bring to customers including: quality, time, price, service. ‘Up to now, I still receive regular orders of nearly 20 containers every month regardless of whether it is timber season or not.

Currently, as of 2024, I have traded with more than 180 customers and established close relationships with dozens of customers. I am confident to bring you reputable, sincere advice and good quality wood at the cheapest price. If you are looking for quality Angola wood or simply looking for wood advice, please contact me via WhatsApp: +84 85 555 5304. Thank you very much for reading.
