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
