relationships with its clientele over time. These relationships are rooted in trust,
reliability, and a commitment to delivering quality service consistently.

its complete dependence on imported raw materials. The company's ability to
maintain profitability and sustain its operations is impacted by the timing of material
purchases relative to currency fluctuations, as well as factors such as supply
availability and competitive positioning within the industry. Nevertheless, TR Paper
has the option to mitigate this risk by passing any additional expenses incurred onto
customers, thereby providing a measure of financial protection.
