Priceworth International Bhd executive director Richard Koo Jenn Man

TURNING in relatively negligible profit margins for the longest time, logging and wood product manufacturing firm Priceworth International Bhd (PWI) is banking on its proposed acquisition of timber extraction and replanting rights of a forest reserve in Sabah to help boost margins and reward shareholders in the process.
