Charcoal is still one of the most commonly used sources of fuel in the world. It has been used unchanged by man for more than 5,000 years. If longevity is one measure of successful design then it must be one of the most successful designs ever. Bamboo is a sustainable, environmentally friendly and efficient source of charcoal production. Approximately 24 million tonnes of charcoal are made and consumed worldwide and the market is growing. The industry as a whole has a severe problem in that a large amount of charcoal production is not from sustainable sources. It is fundamentally important to emphasise that everything the company does is environmentally friendly and fully sustainable. The company's marketing approach is to concentrate initially on the production of ordinary bamboo charcoal. Bamboo charcoal offers consumers a very high calorific value in addition to a very clean burn; from a sustainable source. The company intends to focus on securing distributors in various countries with whom we will work to get our product into the various high volume users in these countries. The company is securing letters of Commitment from a number of major distributors.Clabby Dhu's approach to charcoal manufacture is very simple. We will only make charcoal from bamboo. The bamboo is cut down to just above ground from which point it rapidly re-grows. Sustainability lies at the heart of everything Clabby Dhu is involved in.To be attractive to distributors Clabby Dhu will offer the following:?A top quality product?A competitive price?Reliable shipping and delivery to port?A consistent adherence to the policy of environmental sustainabilityOur base price CIF EU ports to distributors is $450 per tonne. This price leaves a large margin for both distributors and end retailers whilst ensuring that Clabby Dhu's is still able to offer very good, sustainable, returns to investors.
