Manufacturer direct vs intermediary: concrete advantages for a Senegalese wholesaler
A wholesaler or importer in Senegal has two sourcing options: through an intermediary (agent, regional importer) or directly with the manufacturer. The table below compares both:
| Criterion | AFI manufacturer (direct) | Via intermediary |
|---|---|---|
| Price | At production cost, no intermediary margin | Cumulative margins at each step |
| Traceability | Direct: batch number, BBD, factory data sheet | Partial or delayed |
| Volumes | Plannable long-term, production on demand | Limited to available stocks |
| Responsiveness | Direct communication with sales team | Relay and approval delays |
| Certifications | ISO 22000, ONSSA, HACCP, IFS V6, Halal (IMANOR) | To verify per intermediary |
| Customisation | Negotiable packaging, formats and MOQ | Standard set by intermediary |
For a Senegalese distributor building a lasting business, dealing directly with the manufacturer ensures better margin control, traceability that meets local sanitary requirements, and consistent long-term supply.

Import and customs clearance in Senegal: what to plan for
Importing food products wholesale into Senegal is regulated by the Direction de l’Alimentation and the Direction du Commerce Intérieur. Key points for an importer or wholesaler in Dakar:
- Required documents: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, sanitary certificates (ONSSA, halal), analysis report if requested.
- Sanitary standards: infant products must meet Senegalese food safety regulations for baby nutrition.
- Dakar clearance: transit via Port Autonome de Dakar; a local freight forwarder is recommended for customs operations.
- Storage: dry, away from heat and moisture — standard conditions for cereals and fruit desserts.
AFI provides all documents required for customs clearance (ONSSA certificate, technical data sheet, IMANOR halal certificate) with each shipment. For more on Moroccan certification, visit ONSSA.
