Our proof

What we certify, test and trace — commodity by commodity

This page states exactly what stands behind an Afri Exports shipment: TBS-certified processing in Tanzania, a laboratory panel on every lot, and traceability back to named growing areas across our three origins.

TBS Certified Processing

Tanzania Bureau of Standards (TBS)

Active

Our Tanzanian processing operation in Mtwara — covering the cashew and sesame programmes — is certified under the Tanzania Bureau of Standards framework, the national benchmark for food handling and export quality.

Issuer
Tanzania Bureau of Standards
Coverage
Handling, processing, storage and packing of cashew and sesame in Tanzania. Vanilla lots are sourced and consolidated at origin in Madagascar and Uganda.

Per-Lot Laboratory Testing

Crop-specific laboratory panel on every export lot

Origin Traceability

Farmgate-to-container chain of custody

Every consignment traces back through our intake records to named growing areas and a defined harvest or curing window — in Tanzania for cashew and sesame, and in Madagascar's Sava region and Uganda for vanilla.

Grower-group and curer records, intake logs, lot numbering and the document chain from farm gate to loaded container.
