Phytosanitary certification by NAQS, fumigation, and independent inspection on request.

Shipment to destination

Container stuffing and shipment from Lagos ports (Apapa / Tin Can) to the buyer’s nominated port anywhere in the world.

Our quality commitments

  • Every lot is sampled and tested before bagging, and records are kept from farm gate to container.
  • Buyers may appoint an independent inspection company (e.g. SGS, Bureau Veritas, Intertek) at the port of loading.
  • Pre-shipment samples are available so that buyers can approve quality before loading.
  • Contract specifications are written into every sales agreement and checked against each shipment.
