Valaf Information

Valaf is a dynamic company staffed by numerous skilled professionals from different and complementing origins and backgrounds. Primarily, we are a shipping company providing sea, air and land freight mainly to West Africa. Break bulk is our core business, but we also perform shipments in containers and on Ro/Ro basis for cars and heavy vehicles. Handling large quantities of chemicals, we are used to hazardous products, and safety and environmental protection are our principal concerns. We are able to use multimodal transport in order to guarantee you the lowest costs and best transit time, and handle the administrative tasks for you if needed. We at Valaf Shipping are very well informed about political situations and new policy measures in West African countries, thus allowing us advise you and make good calls in order to guarantee unhindered delivery of your cargos, safely and on time. The company also owns a medium range oil tanker operating in West African waters, and has just sold a second vessel which had been trading exclusively in the region for the last 3 years. Headquartered in Dubai Multi Commodities Center (DMCC), and with satellite offices in India and Nigeria, we are able to provide the best management service for our vessel in West Africa. We are currently under negotiation with a number of third party Ship-owners to take over their technical and commercial operations. Recently Valaf has diversified its activities with the creation of a marketing and consultancy department, specializing in Sub-Saharan Africa and offering various services. We endeavour to satisfy customer needs offering customized solutions as quickly and in as cost-effective a manner as possible, relying on mutual trust, dedication to our duties, and efficiency to build long term and strong relationships with our customers. Our wide network in West Africa, particularly in the ports of Nigeria, combined to our excellent knowledge of this continent, are real advantages.
