Optimising every aspect of the supply chain
Driving down costs and speeding up delivery times
Who we are
CAVOLA is a dynamic agro-commodity trading enterprise with well-established operations in Nigeria and the United Kingdom. Our dual-market presence allows us to connect Africa’s abundant agricultural resources with the growing demands of international markets.
We source a wide range of premium products direct from the farm gate. And, most importantly, we oversee all aspect of the logistics chain i.e. produce bagging, labelling, warehousing, road haulage, containerisation, consignment, compliance, shipping, and export documentation.
Our West African operations are run from our Abuja office which is strategically located at the centre of Africa’s largest agricultural economy. And Nigeria’s vast population ensures that our ability to ship large quantities premium products is unmatched anywhere else on the continent.
Certified, compliant, trusted
CAVOLA is an accredited exporter with the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC), giving global buyers confidence in every trade.
And all our operations are built on robust ethical foundations, strict regulatory adherence, and an obsession with transparency. These qualities not only ensure that we meet the stringent compliance requirements of our international customers. But they also help us to optimise every aspect of our supply chain, driving down costs and speeding up delivery times.
Our governance
Our board and executive management possess a wealth of strategic acumen in international trade and cross-border logistics. More specifically, they have extensive sector-specific knowledge in agriculture and clean energy, coupled with a strong grounding in risk management, and regulatory compliance.
For most of our managerial positions, new recruits must possess proven financial and commercial proficiency and a forward-thinking approach to technological innovation in supply chain optimisation.
