They are going to the dogs this company get the kennel ready.    They are breaking every rule of good business
Rule n. o. one  never sell at the bottom of the market the most profitable part of your business, to expand In the least profitable part.
There utter contempt for there workers at the face Is legendary.   Ex {let It be known how much the idiot at the top gets paid,
as they sack the workers and close plants down a couple of weeks before Christmas}.
rule n.o. two
                  never sell anything at the bottom of the cycle, especially when It grows at 4pc on Its own unless forced.to sell
They contemplate setting up In china to process the timber and close down here.     That will be a great laugh, the Chinese
will be rubbing their hands In anticipation.
In the race for silly company of the year award they are third closing fast on RBD with FFS a nose In front
Nobody can be successful In business anywhere In this world treating the staff the way carter holt does.
am Interested to see how the Chinese sort this motley bunch out.
  CAH short term gain If they sell up The Chinese will stick a muzzle on this dog In the longer term.
