About Talcora

A trading house built on integrity and precision.

We connect quality producers and manufacturers with buyers across five continents, and take responsibility for every step in between.

Our story

Making cross-border trade simple and dependable.

Talcora was founded on a simple observation: good products and willing buyers are often kept apart by complexity. Unclear specifications, unreliable suppliers, missing documents and opaque logistics turn promising trades into costly delays.

We close that gap. Our team in London works alongside buyers in their markets, and our operations base in Kano works directly with producers, aggregators and processors at origin. Together we manage sourcing, quality, paperwork, payment security and freight as one joined-up service.

Today we export West African agricultural commodities to buyers in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and North America, and import building materials, machinery, energy equipment, healthcare supplies and consumer goods for growing businesses.

Our mission

To move quality goods across borders with integrity, transparency and lasting value for every party in the trade.

Our vision

To be the most trusted bridge between African production and global demand, and between global supply and African growth.

What we stand for

Principles we trade by.

These principles shape how we choose suppliers, write contracts, inspect goods and treat our partners.

01

Integrity in every contract

Clear specifications, honest quotations and written terms. What we agree is what we deliver.

02

Quality verified, not promised

Independent inspection before shipment, with reports and certificates shared with you.

03

Two continents, one team

Offices in London and Kano give you a partner on the ground at origin and in your market.

04

Long-term relationships

Dedicated account support and consistent supply, built for repeat trade rather than one-off deals.

Where we operate

On the ground at origin, present in your market.

Our two offices give buyers and suppliers a local point of contact, backed by partner networks across 5 trading regions.
