JOSE LUIS ROMEROLogistics, Planning and Trading - Chile
“Interesting and complete Forestry WEB Site. I had the chance to check out your website and I can tell you this is one of few portals with interactive tools between contractors and people looking for job that I’ve seen, so this is a major plus for your company. Other important issue’s was to know (in my case) the dynamic and strong forestry Sector in Australia with your complete video incorporated in your page (other “winner point” in website). In resume, this is a great help for anyone who is looking for new chances in case of jobs and to do business in Australia. This gives us a complete overview about Forestry Sector in Australia.”
