Nakarani Timber & Plywood

At Horamavu 54, the smell of fresh cut wood is the first thing you notice when you get close to our gate. We have stacks of plywood and long timber beams piled up almost to the ceiling in some parts of the shed. It is a lot of lifting and loading every day which keeps everyone in pretty good shape. We don't bother with any fancy displays or showroom lighting because the wood is what it is. Most of the time we are busy checking the thickness of the boards or helping a driver tie down a load so it doesn't fall off on the way to a site. The sawdust gets everywhere, even into the office area where we keep the invoices. It’s a basic setup with some fans to keep the air moving during the hotter months of the year. We’ve seen the area around Horamavu change a lot since we started but the way we handle the timber hasn't changed much at all. We just buy the wood, stack it, and wait for people to come and get what they need for their projects. Sometimes the delivery trucks get stuck in the narrow lane but we always figure out a way to get them out. It's a straightforward life and we don't try to make it seem like anything more than a wood yard where we do our daily tasks and manage the local wood supply.
