Factory sourcing
Building direct supplier relationships around the product, quantity, timing, and commercial needs of East African buyers.
About Jade
The trade gateway for East Africa.
Verified supply, regional context, and one accountable route.
One accountable desk
Two markets move into alignment.
We connect East African buyers with verified global supply and help regional producers prepare for international demand.
Between two markets
Regional context. Global execution.
Jade EastAfrica Trade bridges the commercial realities of the East African Community with supplier networks in China and buyer opportunities across international markets.
For imports, we translate a product need into a factory-ready brief, compare supplier options, verify quality, and prepare the order for freight and clearance. For exports, we help regional producers organize the product, market, documentation, and logistics story international buyers need.
Our responsibility
The details that protect the order.
China-side verification
Coordinating factory audits, samples, product specifications, and pre-shipment inspections through Shanghai-based oversight.
Clearance and compliance
Preparing import-export documents and coordinating with clearing partners so tariffs, customs, and regional requirements remain visible.
Market and logistics intelligence
Combining market research, transparent trade tracking, consolidation, and flexible freight forwarding around the client's margin.
Where we work
From China to East Africa.
Our import work serves retailers, contractors, institutions, project teams, and growing companies. Our export lane supports regional producers preparing specialty coffee, tea, spices, fresh produce, and other high-potential goods for international buyers.
