WOODCATS International, the Kingston-based producer of pallets, has set its sights on diversifying its product offerings “up the value chain” by next year while it is also keen on pushing its products in the export market.

Derrick Cotterell, managing director of Woodcats International, told the Jamaica Observer that the company is currently exploring a number of possibilities with lumber, outside of pallets. “If we are going to make more profits for the company, it will not be through pallets. There is no great profit on pallets.”
