The heart of our business since 1996 has been Tonkin Cane poles for building bamboo fly rods. This is Arundinaria amabilis (aka: Pseudosasa
amabilis) the primary bamboo used by rod making masters around the world since the early 1900’s. We work very closely with our suppliers and
customers to ensure that we maintain the very highest quality standards.
The Bamboo Broker has been selling poles to the agricultural and nursery trades since 1997. Our buyer, Andy Royer, visits China every year to oversee the purchase of bamboo poles directly from individual collection sites in the bamboo forests of Southern China. We know of no better way to select and buy poles. The partnerships we have cultivated and our hands-on approach to purchasing enable us to offer exceptional savings to our wholesale customers and to maintain the highest quality control standards.
