We buy on a regular monthly volume — container by container, with long-term supply strongly preferred over one-off spot lots. Jatoba, marketed as Brazilian cherry, is imported into Vietnam chiefly for hard-wearing premium flooring.

What we use Jatoba for in Vietnam: Jatoba, marketed as Brazilian cherry, is imported into Vietnam chiefly for hard-wearing premium flooring. Its deep red tones and exceptional surface hardness suit solid and engineered floors in villas, showrooms and commercial spaces, and stair manufacturers machine jatoba treads and handrails for high-traffic buildings. Outdoors, jatoba decking competes with cumaru on pool surrounds and terraces. Furniture workshops use it for table tops and benches that shrug off daily abuse, and tool-handle makers value its toughness. Vietnamese buyers order kiln-dried boards and decking profiles from Brazilian mills, checking color sorting since heartwood tone varies noticeably. A very hard, heavy South American hardwood with salmon-red to reddish-brown heartwood that deepens with light. Durable and highly abrasion-resistant, it machines with effort, glues acceptably and polishes to an excellent floor-grade surface.
Shipping from Bolivia: cargo typically loads at inland, shipping via Arica and Puerto Suárez. Bolivia exports jatoba, sirari and other tropical hardwoods as kiln-dried sawn timber and decking, routing overland to Chilean ports or by river corridor. Landlocked logistics add weeks, so contract with realistic lead times. ABT forestry documentation underpins legality; certified community forests supply part of the trade.
