Lisbon, Portugal, will be the setting for the 10th European Convention of the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC).

The forum, held at Le Meridien Hotel on October 24-25, brings together European importers with major US exporters and their agents. Manufacturers who are also major importers of American hardwoods are once again invited to join.

Issues and trends which affect hardwood consumption will be analysed from the perspective of leading European manufacturers. The gala dinner will be held at Portugal’s National Tile Museum.
