TRACEABILITY, A GUARANTEE OF SAFETY FOR EVERYONE!
We are committed to providing superior quality products to our customers, while respecting the highest standards of hygiene, traceability and food safety.
Our history
Dr Kelefa DIAKITÉ, a dental surgeon at the University Hospital in Conakry, Guinea, was deeply committed to environmental protection and wanted to develop an agricultural project in his native Upper Guinea, when he died suddenly of lung cancer at just 59 years of age.
13 years later, his son Samba, imbued with his father's values and a passion for agriculture, decided to carry on his father's legacy by founding Kelefa International SASU.
A trading company specializing in the import of exotic organically grown products from Africa.
A lawyer by training, Samba's dual Afro-European culture and the negotiating skills he acquired as an employee of public and private establishments in France are his assets in forging solid partnerships with producers in Africa on the one hand, and importers, wholesalers and distributors of agri-food products in Europe on the other.
The aim is twofold: to combat post-harvest losses in sub-Saharan Africa by creating economic opportunities for young people, particularly women, in the agricultural regions where the produce is grown, while at the same time meeting the supply needs of the European market for exotic organic products. All in a fair trade and sustainable agriculture context.
Our engagements
Sustainable and environmentally friendly agriculture guides each of our actions.
Thus, we are determined to offer our customers total transparency on the origin and journey of our products, from the farm to the desired delivery location.
Thanks to a rigorous supplier referencing process, and because we firmly believe that every individual deserves to consume healthy and safe products, we deliver high quality food to you while guaranteeing control of the entire supply chain.
