Copperbelt Forestry Co LTD - Kitwe, Zambia

Copperbelt Forestry Company (CFC) was born out of the partial privatization of Zambia Forestry and Forest Industries Corporation Limited (ZAFFICO) when the processing plants at Kalibu and Kafubu sawmills as well as 846 hectares of forest plantations were acquired in a Management Buyout.
Although the company is still heavily reliant on Zaffico for its Roundwood requirements, it has over the years acquired an additional 1,876 hectares of land with a view of having 3,000 hectares of own forest plantations by 2030 and become self-sufficient.
The company has adequate timber processing infrastructure and expertise to meet most of the timber requirements for the construction and mining industry in the country.
