African Trade contains an index of companies listed by industry. The individual entries are then linked to the corresponding company’s website. The African Trade helps users search for companies, services or products in a more targeted way. From the point of view of search engine optimization an entry in our platform is important; it makes your website in question easier to find and creates an additional backlink.

Our core activity is to provide business information, which helps suppliers to connect to customers and to help buyers to find new sources of supply. We do, however, like to recognize the individual nature of the businesses that use our services. We are therefore happy to produce tailor made solutions to support individual company communication needs. We also constantly listen to our growing audience of users and refine our information presentation to be flexible to their individual needs. We like to think that at African-Trade we are very different.
