WHO WE ARE

Two people. One corridor. A clear process.

Pradet is a small, focused firm — built that way intentionally. What we bring is a structured process for market entry, real contacts on both sides of the Africa-Europe corridor, and direct access to the people leading your engagement.

01

No clear strategy for reaching buyers or entering new markets

02

Complex EU and African import rules, costs, and compliance requirements

03

Lack of distributor networks and market intelligence

04

Unclear landed costs, thin margins, and missing certifications

OUR STORY

Born from experience on both sides of the corridor.

On the African side, talented producers were struggling to access European markets. On the European side, companies were searching for reliable African suppliers and finding only complexity and friction.

The gap wasn't talent or ambition. It was structure. Pradet was built to close that gap — as a trade strategy partner that stays involved from assessment through execution.
