What Inland Trading does
Some agricultural requirements are too specific for an off-the-shelf product. Inland Trading exists for the gap between what the agronomist specifies and what conventional suppliers are willing or able to manufacture.
We bring together sourcing, formulation, toll-manufacturing, packaging and delivery partners to turn a technical requirement into a repeatable commercial product.
End-to-end capability
Inland Trading manages the interfaces between the technical brief, raw materials, manufacturer, packaging supplier and delivery destination.
Locate difficult raw materials, technical ingredients and compatible component suppliers across an established procurement network.
Translate an agronomic or commercial brief into a manufacturable specification, with attention to compatibility, concentration and application method.
Coordinate production through fit-for-purpose manufacturing partners for granular, dry-blended, powdered and liquid formulations.
Integrate microbial, biochemical and biostimulant technologies into conventional or specialised nutrition programmes where the formulation allows.
Align pack format, batch identification and labelling requirements to the customer, market and intended application.
Manage manufacturing schedules, consolidated loads, cross-border documentation and delivery coordination across Southern Africa.
Material systems
The manufacturing route follows the job. We are not tied to a single process, plant or product format.
Prescription NPK, soil amendments, coated granules and application-specific blends.
Microfine minerals, soluble powders, dry biological carriers and speciality blends.
Suspensions, concentrates, foliar nutrition, soil-applied liquids and two-part systems.
Microorganisms, enzymes, metabolites, biostimulants and biologically enhanced inputs.
Laboratory analysis · target nutrient profile · application method · batch volume · packaging format · delivery location
From brief to delivered batch
Application, analysis, crop objective, target concentration, equipment and commercial constraints.
Raw-material availability, supplier qualification, pricing, lead times and substitutes are resolved.
The formulation is balanced for compatibility, manufacturability, stability and practical application.
The correct toll-manufacturing route is selected and production is coordinated against specification.
Batch records, applicable analysis, packaging and release requirements are checked before dispatch.
Loads, export documentation and final delivery are coordinated around the customer’s programme.
Requirement → Batch → Record
Quality & traceability
Every project begins with a defined specification. Inland Trading coordinates raw-material documentation, manufacturing instructions, batch identification, applicable testing and release information around the product and market requirements.
Manufacturing & logistics network
Inland Trading works through a network of specialised toll manufacturers and technical suppliers. This flexible model lets us match the formulation to the correct capability—rather than force every product through one facility.
Designed to work with AgVida—and beyond
The consultancy identifies the soil, crop and operational requirement independently.
The technical prescription becomes a sourced, manufactured, packaged and delivered product.
Inland Trading also works directly with agricultural businesses, formulators, distributors and input companies requiring confidential contract sourcing or toll manufacture.
