NAFDAC registration checksBikes, pharma & food

India is a sourcing market for vehicles, medicines, food, textiles and industrial equipment. The exact product, supplier and destination requirements determine whether an enquiry can become a compliant supply offer. Start with the specification and the required registrations.

FAQs

Questions buyers ask us

Can you supply Bajaj or TVS tricycles directly from India?
These brands sell through official distributors in each country, so for most buyers the local distributor is the right route. We can source compatible parts and other brands directly.
Do Indian medicines need NAFDAC registration?
Yes. Medicines imported into Nigeria must be registered with NAFDAC.
Does India restrict rice exports?
India has changed its rice export rules several times in recent years, so we check the current position before quoting.

Buying from India?

Tell us the product and quantity. We check registrations first, then send prices.

India sourcing guides by product and buying requirement

Use the product guides below to prepare a more specific enquiry. Wigmore Trading can discuss supplier identification, specification review, procurement coordination and logistics within an agreed scope. Availability and legal eligibility must be established for the actual product, exporter, importer and destination.

A product being made or traded in India does not mean it can be exported without conditions or imported into every African market. Confirm the exact description and classification before requesting a firm landed quotation. The Indian government’s foreign-trade policy explanation distinguishes freely traded, restricted, prohibited and state-trading categories; current DGFT notifications and other applicable rules must be checked for the proposed shipment.

Prepare a sourcing brief that suppliers can quote

Include product specification, grade or model, quantity, permitted alternatives, packaging, destination and intended use. Say whether you require an origin-port offer, freight to a port or delivery through to your premises. List inspection, traceability and regulatory evidence required before shipment.

For machinery, add the operating duty, utilities and service expectations. For food and ingredients, identify the intended application, testing, shelf life and storage needs. For medicines and medical equipment, use the exact registered product or device details and an appropriately authorised importer. Generic category names cannot establish approval.

Compare the complete commercial scope

Check origin, specification, inspection, payment milestones, delivery responsibilities and claim handling. A sample is useful only when the bulk order must meet the agreed sample and measurable acceptance criteria. Confirm bank details through an independently verified channel and investigate any unexpected beneficiary change.

The related guides provide practical buying checklists. They do not establish that every listed product is in stock, that Wigmore is a manufacturer or appointed brand dealer, or that an import permit or credit facility is already available.

Prepare your procurement enquiry

This checklist is for your own use and does not submit data.

Discuss your India sourcing requirement

Send Wigmore Trading your product specification, quantity, destination and target date. We can assess supplier identification, procurement coordination and logistics within an agreed scope. Product availability, eligibility, price and delivery commitments are confirmed for the particular offer.
