Frequently asked
Questions, answered.
Who buys on TAIM54?
Verified buyers worldwide sourcing from African suppliers. Procurement teams, importers, distributors, and resellers across multiple industries.
How does the verification badge work?
After you submit your profile, an admin reviewer scores you 1 to 5 across documentation, business history, and reliability. A score of 4 or 5 auto-grants the gold "Verified" badge, which buyers can filter for in the directory and the RFQ inbox.
What's the difference between RFQ and RFP?
RFQ (Request For Quote) — the buyer knows exactly what they need; you compete on price and lead time. RFP (Request For Proposal) — the buyer describes a project; you propose your own approach. Both land in your inbox.
Do I have to use your shipping?
No. The shipping estimator is a quote tool, not a requirement. Declare which lanes you serve at /supplier/shipping/lanes and bring your own logistics partners if you prefer.
What countries can I sell into?
Anywhere buyers are signing up to source from Africa. We are adding markets as the buyer base grows; if your target destination is missing, let us know via contact.
