Africa's Digitally Orchestrated Trade Infrastructure
Who We Are
TAWDO Logistics Rail is Africa's first digitally orchestrated, escrow-linked trade logistics layer — built to connect ports, corridors, cold-chain networks, freight forwarders, customs authorities, and inspection bodies into a single, trusted cargo execution system.
TAWDO does not operate ships, trucks, or warehouses.
We operate the digital control layer that synchronizes cargo, compliance, and payments across Africa's trade routes.
We exist to eliminate:
- ✗Ghost shipments
- ✗Payment risk
- ✗Compliance failures
- ✗Cold-chain losses
- ✗Fragmented corridor operations
and replace them with institution-grade trade execution.
What TAWDO Logistics Rail Does
TAWDO Logistics Rail coordinates two global trade flows:
Africa → World
Agriculture, minerals, raw materials, semi-processed and processed goods
World → Africa
Machinery, industrial equipment, medical systems, energy, and manufacturing inputs
Both move through the same digitally governed rail:
No shipment moves without compliance.
No money moves without delivery.
How the Rail Works
TAWDO aligns four critical layers of trade execution:
| Layer | What We Coordinate |
|---|---|
| Logistics | Sea, air, road, project cargo, cold chain |
| Compliance | PSI, FAT, customs, ESG, certificates |
| Payments | Escrow, milestones, FX, PAPSS |
| Data | Documents, chain-of-custody, audit trail |
Every shipment is:
Verified
Inspected
Tracked
Escrow-secured
Digitally documented
This allows ports, banks, buyers, and insurers to trust the same trade record.
