Timber trade in the commodity exchanges will eliminate the informal economy in the sector and help for transparent pricing, this said the directors of six state forest enterprises at a press conference.
Former practice in the sale at auction was a private company to buy wood for BGN 30 per cubic and then sell them at an average cost of BGN 65. I guarantee that in 92% of cases there is no invoice issued for this difference. Thus, gray economy is hourly produced and this practice should be terminated said Mr. Yuri Mikov - Director of Northwestern Forestry State Enterprise. In his opinion, timber sales through Stock Exchange will put an order in the timber trade.The way for price fixing of timber trade is the same as for the the stock market and the auctions organized by the forestry enterprises.
Directors of forestry enterprises united around the opinion that if there is a current wood deficit, it is provoked by companies who deliberately boycot market. Companies that actually work are not on a protest, announced Mr. Mikov. According to him the reason for deficiency in the firewood is the bad weather because nobody has expected such a winter, including warehouses.
State forestry enterprises should be able to hire workers who can acquire wood in difficult and unattractive places, as well as in emergency situation, said Mr. Peycho Varbanov - Director of Southeastern State Forestry Enterprise. According to him, up to ten jobs could be opened in any forestry enterprise that will not interfere with private logging companies.
