SILEAT sources and exports six raw materials of Guinean origin: Raw Cashew Nuts (RCN), cashew kernels, Green Robusta Coffee, cocoa beans, raw shea butter and dried Bird’s Eye chilli.Product characteristics and specifications are provided according to the product, crop season and buyer requirements.

Our raw materials are sourced in Guinea, as close as possible to their production areas.Depending on the product, our sourcing network includes key production areas such as Boké, Kankan, Macenta, N’Zérékoré and Lola. This proximity to origin allows us to better understand the products, their production conditions and the stakeholders across our supply chain.

Yes. SILEAT’s model is built on an operational presence and local network in Guinea, enabling us to identify production areas, select suppliers and local partners, and monitor raw materials before export.Our objective is to build long-term relationships with our partners at origin while meeting the requirements of our international customers.

Quality begins at the selection stage. Depending on the product and the buyer’s requirements, various parameters may be checked, including moisture content, appearance, size or grade, drying conditions, fermentation, storage conditions, as well as certain microbiological criteria or contaminants.Where required, additional analyses may be carried out prior to shipment. Applicable specifications are stated in the technical data sheet or agreed with the buyer before order confirmation.

Traceability is one of SILEAT’s core principles. We work to identify the origin of each lot and document the key stages of our supply chain, from the sourcing area through to export.The level of documentation and traceability available is specified according to the product, the lot and the buyer’s requirements.

Lots intended for the European market are prepared in accordance with the regulatory requirements applicable to the product and destination market.Depending on the product and the buyer’s requirements, controls or analyses may cover pesticide residues, contaminants, mycotoxins, microbiological criteria, or other applicable regulatory parameters. Specific requirements are confirmed prior to order placement.

Depending on the product, destination and contractual terms, the shipping documentation may include a commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, phytosanitary certificate where required, transport documents, and analysis results or a Certificate of Analysis (COA) when applicable.Additional documents may also be considered depending on the requirements of the importing country or the buyer.

Certifications do not automatically apply to all SILEAT products.When a buyer requires a specific certification — such as organic, Fairtrade or another recognised standard — this requirement should be specified at the quotation stage so that we can verify the availability of a supply chain or lot that meets the requested certification.

For our regular commercial operations, our MOQ is generally one 20-foot container per product.The actual loadable volume may vary depending on the nature and density of the product, its packaging, and logistical constraints.

Mixed-load options are assessed on a case-by-case basis. They depend in particular on product compatibility, storage requirements, packaging, available volumes, and the applicable regulatory and logistical requirements.Contact us with your specific requirements so that we can assess the most suitable solution.

Yes, under certain conditions. A sample can be arranged before a commercial order to allow the buyer to assess the product.Available quantities, preparation costs, any required analyses and shipping costs are determined according to the product and destination.

Packaging depends on the product and the requirements of the destination market.Suitable agricultural commodity bags, jute bags, food-grade packaging or other solutions can be considered depending on the product’s characteristics. Final packaging arrangements are specified in the commercial offer.

Our export offer is primarily structured on an FOB Conakry basis.Other logistics solutions may be considered depending on the product, volume, destination and buyer requirements. The applicable Incoterms are always specified in the commercial offer.

SILEAT works with professional importers and distributors in France, across Europe and in international markets.The feasibility of each shipment is assessed based on the destination, applicable regulations, volumes and logistics requirements.

Lead times depend on the product, harvest season, requested volume, lot availability, quality controls and the formalities required for export.An estimated timeline is provided to the buyer when the commercial offer is issued.

As agricultural raw materials are subject to crop seasons, availability and market fluctuations, we provide tailored quotations rather than fixed public pricing.To receive an offer, simply provide the following details: product, volume, destination, required specifications and preferred packaging.

Because we aim to shorten the distance between origin and buyer.Our model combines on-the-ground knowledge in Guinea, raw material selection, quality control, traceability and export operations management. Our ambition is simple: to build reliable supply chains and long-term business relationships.
