Let’s talk about your West Africa strategy
BECOME AN AFQIS LLC PARTNER
If you are a U.S. food company — a rice miller, commodity exporter, edible oil producer, canned goods manufacturer, or flour supplier — and you want to sell more product in West Africa, we should talk.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
We work with U.S.-based food companies that meet the following profile:
You produce or distribute food products with documented export capability (FDA compliance, export documentation, container shipping)
You are interested in Senegal and/or Francophone West Africa as a sales market
You are able to offer competitive FOB pricing on your products
You are open to a commission-based sales representation agreement
You are willing to work with payment terms standard in West African trade (Letters of Credit, T/T with deposit)
We are especially interested in speaking with:
Rice millers and grain cooperatives (long grain white rice, broken rice, millet)
Edible oil producers and distributors (soybean oil, sunflower oil)
Sugar refiners (ICUMSA 45 refined white sugar)
Tomato paste manufacturers (retail cans and industrial aseptic)
Canned seafood packers (sardines, mackerel, tuna)
Flour millers (all-purpose wheat flour)
WHAT THE PARTNERSHIP LOOKS LIKE
We sign a sales representation agreement — commission-based, with clear scope and exclusivity terms
We conduct an initial market assessment for your specific product (typically 2–4 weeks)
We begin active buyer outreach and return with qualified leads and interest letters
We facilitate your first West Africa transaction from introduction to purchase order
We provide quarterly reporting on market activity, buyer pipeline, and sales performance
