distributor• Somalia• Member since 2017

Baladi General Trading Company presents itself as a Somali food commodity import, wholesale and distribution company headquartered in Bakaaro Market, Mogadishu, at Office 102, Lulu Apartments, 30-ka Street. The company says it was founded in 2017 and has since developed relationships with international suppliers, traders, wholesalers and retailers across the Somali market, connecting established international suppliers with Somalia's wholesale and retail market through direct sourcing, dependable logistics and professional distribution. The company states that it purchases food commodities at origin, primarily in full-container loads, directly from mills, refineries, manufacturers and export houses in Asia, East Africa and South America; cargo is shipped by sea to the Port of Mogadishu, cleared through customs and distributed into the national wholesale market. It says it coordinates the full shipping cycle - booking, documentation, bills of lading, port handling and customs clearance through authorised clearing agents - and supplies wholesalers, retailers, institutional buyers and re-distributors in Mogadishu and the regions, with flexible lot sizes. The company says it imports and distributes essential food commodities: its products page shows rice, cooking oil, yellow corn and sugar, and it also names pulses among the commodities it supplies. It says these goods are selected according to customer needs and market requirements and that direct sourcing allows competitive landed costs and consistent product specifications. The company also offers its services to overseas suppliers and trading houses without a direct presence in Somalia, saying it can act as their local commercial arm by receiving consignments, coordinating clearance, selling into the market and providing account reconciliation and reporting. Its stated mission is to make quality essential foodstuffs consistently available and affordable across Somalia through lasting, transparent partnerships, and its vision is to be recognised as Somalia's trusted name in food commodity import and distribution and a preferred local partner for international suppliers.
