Celebes  started  in 1981  when it  manufactured  wood  products  from
timber sourced from its own forest concession in Butuan City located in  
the  island  of  Mindanao.  Yet  from this modest  start  emerged one of

-    Wooden Toothpicks
-    Ice-Cream Sticks
-    Wooden Knife Handles
-    Paint Brush Handles
-    Paint Paddles

Today, all production is exported to the to the United States, Germany,
Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, United Kingdom and other countries.
