Supply Chains

Timber processing is the largest industrial sector in Latvia. With forests covering more than 50% of Latvia's territory, Latvia is one of the most forested EU member states. The forestry and wood processing industry have a long tradition in Latvia, and many Danish companies produce their wood products such as designer furniture in Latvia as raw materials and labour are available at a competitive level. 

Another important industrial sector in Latvia is metal processing. Several Danish metal processing companies have established facilities in Latvia and have become sub suppliers to major infrastructure projects. 

The Trade Council provides assistance to Danish companies seeking to strengthen their supply chain and to explore the opportunities in Latvia.
