Our Footprint

Headquartered in Lagos, operating across Nigeria's key trade corridors.

We are actively powering procurement for manufacturers, distributors, FMCG brands, and civil infrastructure builders. Sourcing in Nigeria is high-velocity and relationship-driven, but has suffered from fragmented middlemen and delayed information. Sokora provides the digital rails: verified vendors, transparent Naira quotes, and auditable delivery tracking.

Our Mission

Make B2B trade predictable and trusted.

We turn the daily realities of Nigerian procurement into an auditable, high-performance system that lets corporate buyers order with complete confidence.

100% Verified Primary Suppliers

We believe buyers should never lose money to unregistered phantom brokers. Every supplier on our platform undergoes rigorous CAC status verification, FIRS TIN checks, physical warehouse inspections, and historical fulfillment audits.

Speed with Radical Price Transparency

Waiting 6 days for a quote while brokers scramble is unacceptable for active factories. Our platform delivers comparable, competitive quotes within 18 hours, saving buyers an average of 14.2% on baseline costs.

Bank-Grade Escrow Protection

Through our regulated Nigerian banking partners, funds are held securely until buyers inspect goods and approve the digital Goods Receipt Note (GRN). This protects capital while guaranteeing prompt payout to diligent suppliers.
