Thank you for Subscribing to Agri Business Review Weekly Brief
WubuBamboo, From Ideas and Dreams to Solid Business
Juan Pablo Martínez, CEO and Founder, WubuMany groups, foundations, ministries, associations and LLCs are delving into bamboo cultivation, dreaming high and big, expecting frequently, an almost miraculous outcome from their bamboo endeavors.
Although we also believe in bamboo’s almost miraculous performance, we have experienced first-hand, what it means to have a sustainable and thriving business with this material.
If you search in the world wide web, you may find many sites that say bamboo grows almost anywhere, do not need irrigation, can withstand cold weather, do not require fertilization, capture more CO2 than trees and so on. These affirmations may be true, but not always and certainly, not pertaining to all bamboos. There are around 1750 bamboo species around the world, and yes, some are hardy and grow in temperate climate, they have resistant rhizomes and roots, can hold a lot of water in their culms, can withstand heavy metal polluted soils, can grow almost anywhere and with little care.
The matter of the fact here is: ¿What do you want your bamboo to do? ¿Only grow? If you only want your bamboo to grow and exist, then, all that you have heard is true and no problem. You can buy your plant, put it almost anywhere and wait for it to have green leaves for 50 years of more. But, if you want to make a business out of bamboo, then you’re in for a surprise. You may throw millions of dollars at a patch of land, put there a lot of bamboo, and only see a few beautiful green leaves, but no big and plentiful culms of a commercial quality.
This is the reason for our company to exist. We have walked the path, we have been there and done that.
We have lost a lot of money finding out how to make a business out of bamboo, or shall I say, we have invested a lot on tuition from the Universe in order to learn how to grow bamboo commercially. We have had the chance to find excellent teachers, professional and experienced, and learnt the way to grow bamboo and make it a sound business.
The main details of these findings are:
1. Where is your land?
2. How is the soil in your land?
3. What do you want to do with your bamboo?
4. How much money do you have for investing in your plantation, harvesting systems, transformation protocols and commercialization of the material?
5. How long do you want to take it?
6. Do you want to only sell poles?
7. Do you want to preserve the material?
8. Do you want to transform it?
9. Do you already have clients for your material?
Once you have these questions clearly answered, we can begin deciding what species to plant, and establish all protocols in order for it to succeed, as fast, as big, as strong as possible. We aim to get the best results, beginning from the former and ending with the best managing practices.
In order to have a successful bamboo business, you will need tools, machinery, clients, protocols and so on, and this is our job. We have been working for more than 13 years in gathering the best of the best around the world.
