MISSION & VISION
Samartex Timber & Plywood Company Limited was
established in 1995
Hitherto, the company was known as African Timber & Plywood Company (AT&P) which had been in existence since 1947 under the UAC group of companies. Samartex Timber & Plywood Company Limited took over AT&P at a time when it was saddled with a myriad of problems including mismanagement and a disastrous fire outbreak, which had left the company’s facilities in chaos.
