What we do
What we do for you
International sourcing office
We look for manufacturers and compare their offers, prices and lead times included. You receive a reasoned shortlist.
Business facilitation
We connect buyers and suppliers who would not have found each other, then set the contractual framework so the deal can close.
Project coordination
Ordering, quality control, shipping, reception on site: we coordinate every party and you keep a single contact.
Local support
Our partners in Guinea, DR Congo, Burundi and Nigeria know the ground. They follow the delivery and handle what cannot be handled from afar.
A strong presence at the heart of Africa
Through our trusted local partners, we are present in 4 strategic countries.

Our method
Six steps, from the need to the site
Understand
We start from the need: the use, the place, the deadline, the budget, and the donor's rules if there is one.
Source
We consult manufacturers and suppliers, and check each one's standards and lead times.
Select
We present the shortlisted offers and our reasons. When needed, we go and see the machine before buying.
Coordinate
Contracts, orders, quality control, shipping: we coordinate every party and you keep a single contact.
Deliver
Equipment leaves packed and labelled, with its paperwork. For the DR Congo Ministry of Health, it left at short notice.
Follow up
Our partners follow the arrival on site. In Burundi, we were there with the CASOBU team.
