We are not a commodity broker. We are a structured international supply company with direct Nigerian origin oversight, UK commercial coordination and a supply model built for serious repeat buyers.
Most shea butter buyers face the same challenge: finding a supplier who combines verifiable origin quality, reliable documentation and professional commercial communication. Nedu Industries is built to solve all three.
We operate with on-ground presence in both Lagos and Enugu — two of Nigeria's primary shea butter commercial centres. This is not a paper arrangement: we have established sourcing relationships and production oversight at origin level.
Our Plymouth, UK office handles all commercial communications with international buyers — in English, within UK business hours, registered and accountable under UK company law. This eliminates the communication friction that commonly undermines African commodity supply chains.
Every commercial shipment is accompanied by laboratory-tested quality certification. We work with internationally recognised testing protocols and can provide Certificate of Analysis (COA) documentation confirming product specification before goods are dispatched.
Commercial invoice, packing list, Certificate of Origin, phytosanitary documentation and COA are prepared and reviewed before every shipment. Buyers do not chase documentation — it is delivered as part of the standard commercial process.
We are built for long-term commercial relationships, not one-time transactions. Our commercial model includes recurring supply contracts, scheduled production allocation and pricing frameworks that give buyers consistency across multiple shipment cycles.
Pricing is provided in formal quotation format. Payment terms, incoterms, lead times and shipment specifications are agreed in writing before production begins. Buyers are not surprised by hidden costs or undisclosed changes to agreed terms.
The shea butter industry presents a consistent challenge for global buyers: African production capacity is high, but professional commercial infrastructure — reliable communication, verifiable quality, proper export documentation — is inconsistently developed across suppliers.
Nedu Industries exists to bridge this gap. By combining Nigerian origin operations with UK-based commercial management, we give international buyers what they need: a supplier who works like a Western B2B company but has genuine access to African origin supply.
This dual-structure model is unusual in the shea butter supply chain — and it is the primary reason buyers return to us for repeat orders.
Initial enquiries receive a professional, considered response from our UK office — not an automated reply. We review your requirements before responding to ensure our first communication is relevant and commercially useful.
Quotations are provided in formal commercial format with product specification, pricing, incoterms, estimated lead time and payment terms — all in writing, with no verbal-only commitments.
Before production begins, a commercial agreement or purchase order is confirmed in writing. Specifications, quantities, packaging, and timelines are documented to prevent ambiguity.
You receive shipment updates through the dispatch and transit process — not silence followed by an arrival notification. We communicate proactively on significant milestones.
All commercial, quality and customs documents are provided ahead of or at shipment — COA, commercial invoice, packing list, Certificate of Origin and phytosanitary certification.
