Abstract

In wood trade sector, the supplier is the forest and the product is round wood. The quality, the quantity and value of wood depend heavily on the practices that are applied in the early stages of the supply chain. The aim of the paper is to present the perspectives of wood trade in Greece and also to study how the economic crisis has affected the forest productionand trade (imports and exports). Finally, we will discuss the challenge of using new information technologies, such as databases, digital timber traceability systems, sustainable timber and wood products, in collaboration with the traditional methods employed in wood trade sector contemporarily.
