SNJ Exim exports Caustic Soda Flakes (Soude Caustique en Paillettes), Hydrogen Peroxide, Sulphuric Acid (Acide Sulfurique), Hydrochloric Acid (Acide Chlorhydrique), Sodium Bicarbonate (Bicarbonate de Sodium) and Glacial Acetic Acid (Acide Acétique Glacial) from Gujarat, India to Côte d’Ivoire and Francophone West Africa — serving soap and detergent manufacturing (savonnerie), agro-processing (cocoa and cashew), water treatment and textiles. Abidjan is the regional hub for Senegal, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso and Cameroon. Documentation available in French on request.
Côte d’Ivoire, centred on the port of Abidjan, is Francophone West Africa’s main industrial and distribution hub — and also home to well-established local distributors like Polychimie SA (trading chemicals in Abidjan since 1960, Côte d’Ivoire’s first ISO 9001-certified chemical trading company) and Ivoire Chimie. Against that incumbency, our edge is India-origin cost competitiveness and consistent documentation rather than local relationship depth built over decades. Demand is led — and growing fast — by caustic soda flakes (soude caustique en paillettes) for the region’s large soap and detergent industry (savonnerie), with strong growth in hydrogen peroxide, sodium bicarbonate (bicarbonate de sodium) and sulphuric acid (acide sulfurique). Note that Ivorian buyers commonly search for both flake and pearl (perlée) forms of caustic soda — we currently supply flakes specifically. Abidjan is a natural base for onward distribution to Senegal, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso and Cameroon. SNJ Exim supplies IMDG DG documentation and GHS SDS, with French-language SDS and commercial documents available on request, aligned with CODINORM’s mandatory pre-shipment Verification of Conformity (VOC) programme.
