Latvijas valsts meži

Latvijas valsts meži, also abbreviated as LVM, is the organisation responsible for the management of Latvia’s state-owned forest resources. Its core activities include the planning and execution of forestry operations, timber harvesting, and the production of wood‑based products. The organisation additionally provides services such as forest regeneration, conservation work, and the upkeep of forest infrastructure. LVM also sells timber and related forest commodities to customers in Latvia and abroad.

The source material does not disclose specific quantitative details regarding the organisation’s size, workforce, or geographic reach. Consequently, no explicit figures on annual output, employee count, or the extent of forest area under its management can be provided from the available information.

As evidenced by the 2026 cyberattack, LVM maintains internal databases that contain access keys, authentication data, employee information and other internal documents. The organisation operates a GeoServer instance to handle geographic data related to its forest holdings. LVM’s responsibility for managing state-owned forest land is a defining characteristic of the organisation.

Latvijas valsts meži is a state‑owned enterprise, meaning its ownership rests with the Latvian government. The source material does not specify any parent company, subsidiaries, or private ownership stakes.
