The coffee wood dog chew industry is flourishing, driven by growing consumer demand for sustainable, natural pet products. Yet, the foundation of any successful coffee wood dog chew manufacturer lies in one critical factor: the availability and quality of raw coffee wood material. Vietnam, the world’s second-largest coffee exporter after Brazil, enjoys a significant advantage in raw coffee wood materials. However, does this seemingly abundant resource meet the ever-growing global demand for coffee wood dog chews?
Let’s delve into how CWDC Vietnam has leveraged its expertise to excel in this competitive industry.
A) Key Characteristics of Coffee Wood for Dog Chew Production
- Sustainability and Source:
Coffee wood used in dog chew production is a by-product of the coffee industry, emphasizing sustainability. It must come from old coffee trees (over 20 years old) that are no longer productive in yielding coffee beans. These trees are cut down and replaced with younger ones. Additionally, only wood from trees over 20 years old is hard and dense enough to prevent splintering, making it ideal for manufacturing dog chews.
- Limited Harvesting Period:
The collection of coffee wood from farms and farmers typically lasts only a few months, from November to next March. Outside of this window, we are unable to continue to collect coffee wood.
- Dependency on Coffee Bean Prices:
The availability of coffee wood is heavily influenced by the price of coffee beans. For instance, this year, coffee prices at times have doubled compared to last year. This has led farms and farmers to retain old coffee trees to harvest beans in the next season. When everyone refrains from cutting down aged coffee trees, it significantly contributes to the scarcity of coffee wood.
B) The Global Supply of Coffee Wood Dog Chews
Most coffee wood dog chews on the global market originate from Vietnam. Nature has endowed Vietnam’s robusta coffee trees with dense grain and hard, splinter-resistant wood, making them almost perfect for producing dog chews.
This season, with the current price of coffee beans and our years of experience in the industry, we believe that: For small orders of a few hundred pieces per size, the scarcity of coffee wood may not be immediately apparent. However, for large-scale orders—such as hundreds of thousands of pieces or shipments of 1x40HC container every three months—the shortage becomes evident.
C) CWDC Vietnam’s Competitive Edge
At CWDC Vietnam, our extensive coffee wood procurement network spans across five provinces in the Central Highlands (Kon Tum, Gia Lai, Đắk Lắk, Đắk Nông, and Lâm Đồng), giving us a significant advantage. This network ensures a stable supply of high-quality raw materials, enabling us to meet the demands of even the most substantial orders and maintain our leadership in the industry.
Although we entered the coffee wood dog chew industry at the end of 2019, it took us two years to stabilize our production operations. We only began directly exporting in early 2022. However, thanks to our highly efficient raw material procurement network, we have evolved from a small family-owned workshop into one of the leading manufacturers of coffee wood dog toys in Vietnam and globally.
Additionally, our philosophy centers on transparency, fostering win-win relationships with our clients, empathizing with their challenges, and guiding them toward success.
Thanks to the strategic vision of our leadership and the unwavering dedication of our team, we’ve built a loyal customer base. These clients value our approach, trust us, and even commit to year-long contracts. This commitment enables us to maintain fresh, high-quality materials without overstocking or compromising on quality.
We firmly believe that B2B sales are not for those lacking integrity or transparency. Success in this field depends on honesty, credibility, and consistency.
Finally, to our cherished customers: we understand that you have many choices out there, and we are deeply grateful that you chose us.
