Maize from Nigeria: Exporter, Supplier, Shipping
Nigerian yellow and white maize (corn) from Kaduna, Kano, Bauchi, and Plateau states, screened and moisture tested for feed and food buyers.
Maize is one of the largest cereal crops in Nigeria, and demand across West Africa remains strong for both feed and food grades. We supply cleaned, screened maize with tested moisture and aflatoxin levels.
Feed grade is common for regional feed mills. Food grade is available with tighter aflatoxin caps for millers, breweries, and food processors.

Questions buyers ask about Nigerian maize.
Do you supply yellow or white maize?
Both. Yellow maize is more common for feed and industrial use; white maize is preferred by millers producing flour for human consumption.
How is aflatoxin controlled?
Lots are sampled and tested at bagging. Food grade shipments meet Codex limits (under 20 ppb total aflatoxin). Certificates of analysis are shared before dispatch.
What is the typical shipping window?
Main harvest is September through December. Storage stock is available through the year, particularly around Lagos and Kaduna hubs.
