Founder, Todd Vickstrom, has also, been involved in business in Belize for fourteen years. From dealing with importation, customs and licensing. Presently, a group of interested land owners have been meeting with the Forestry Department of Belize to implement new laws for the plantation forestry business that have yet been to be established.
Within the seven years, we have been largely involved in the research, of plantation teak silviculture. Our direct and international consultation has made us experts in the field of plantation silviculture in Belize. Of course there is continual study and advancements in the propagation, planting and maintenance of teak.
Belize Teak Futures have seen and experienced necessary changes in the planting and maintenance of the plantations in Belize that may or may not carry on to other Central and South American countries. Foremost the early development and maintenance of the plantation has been studied and new techniques have been practiced. The trees that have been continually maintained, pruned with watchful eye and early fertilization have proved to be far superior, then other like trees managed on plantations within Belize. With girths of trees being double of that found on other plantations, Belize TeakFutures have found that the careful eye to thinning, herbaceous pest control and pruning radically improves the results of the boll of the tree.
Unlike many ventures involving investments in lumber or plantations, this investment is at least dual if not multi facetted. You are purchasing titled land, sizeable investment properties. Prices of raw land in Belize have doubles in the last eight years, tripled in the last twelve. These parcels of land, choosing the land we sell or your own parcels in the Cayo District of Belize are places in which people come to retire. Your land is yours to invest in beyond the teak. The teak will generate in the neighborhood of 16.5% in the 25 year return. That is normally considered a high risk investment, but, this is not due to the history of lumber in the world.
We invite you to obtain one of our parcels of land or contract with us to plant your parcel.
