MRX Intelligence

Field-verified Africa market files. What the databases cannot tell you, priced openly and delivered on a stated date.

For companies doing it themselves

Most of what we know about African markets is sold as a mandate: our people working your account, approaching counterparts, and putting them across the table from you. That suits companies who want the work done for them, and it starts at five figures.

This page is for everyone else. You have your own export people. You want the map, the names, the numbers and the compliance path, and you will make the calls yourself. So we sell the outputs directly, at fixed prices, with no meeting required to find out what it costs.

The honest boundary: everything on this page gives you information. Nothing on this page includes an introduction, a meeting, a negotiation, or anyone from MRX approaching a company on your behalf. When you want that, it is a different service and we will tell you so plainly.

Check a company before you commit

The cheapest thing you will ever buy from us, and the one that stops the expensive mistake. Two levels: we check them from here, or we go and stand in front of them.

Company Desk Check

EUR 49 · Next business day

One company checked from the desk: registration status, trading footprint, category fit, verified contactability, public red flags, and a plain proceed / caution / do not proceed verdict.

Nobody visits them. If the decision is worth more than the difference, take the Field Check instead.

Company Field Check

EUR 290 · 5 working days

Everything in the Desk Check, and then one of our operators physically goes there: site visit to the stated address, photographs of the premises and the operation, confirmation the business exists and is trading, and observed scale in staff, warehouse, stock and vehicles. Signed and dated by the operator who attended.

The operator observes and reports. They do not approach, pitch, or represent you.

Fast data, delivered next business day

Machine-produced from our own sourcing and verification stack, checked by a person before it reaches you.

Expo and Buyer Event File

EUR 79 · Next business day

The shows where African buyers in your category actually appear, not the ones that merely advertise African attendance. Includes a pre-show target list.

Does not include stand booking or meeting scheduling.

Starter Partner List

EUR 99 · Next business day

Up to 40 verified importers and distributors in one market for one category, with company contact routes. Failed rows are removed, not padded.

Landed Cost Estimate

EUR 149 · Next business day

One lane, one product, costed end to end: duty and every levy with its legal basis, freight, port, clearing, inland haulage, and the margin room at your target price.

Not a binding quotation. We are not your forwarder.

Qualified Partner List

EUR 249 · Next business day

At least 40 verified, in-category importers and distributors in one market, each with a qualification note on what they actually handle and why they fit, plus tier. Typical delivery is 60 to 90 depending on how deep the category runs in that market.

Does not include named decision makers. See the Contact Pack.

Full Contact Pack

EUR 349 · Next business day

The Qualified Partner List plus decision makers: name, title, direct email, phone, LinkedIn. Only deliverable rows ship, and excluded counts are disclosed. If we cannot reach the 40 company floor in your market and category, we refund in full rather than pad the file.

Does not include us contacting them. You run the outreach.

Market files, made to order

Written for your market and your product. Ten working days, because the parts that matter cannot be generated.

Country File

EUR 250 · 10 working days

The operator dossier on one market: named buying centres with live budget, who actually signs, how you get paid, the compliance gate, distribution tiers and real margins, named counterparts, and a 90 day first-move sequence.

Does not include introductions or meetings. This is the map, not the driver.

Operating File

EUR 290 · 10 working days

How to actually operate there: company or branch, formation with observed timelines, tax and e-invoicing, bank accounts including the ones that get refused, FX, permits, and the true cost of a remote team.

Does not include us incorporating for you.

Sector and Opportunity File

EUR 390 · 10 working days

One sector across a region: buyer archetypes, channel maps, named verified importers, live tenders and procurement calendars, and where the openings actually are.

Includes the markets we would tell you to ignore this year.

Analysis, when the decision is close

Where being wrong is expensive, and you want the case against as clearly as the case for.

Competitor Landscape

EUR 490 · 7 working days

Who already sells your category in one market, their route to market, who distributes for them, pricing where observable, their weaknesses, and what displacing an incumbent would honestly take.

Market Entry Assessment

EUR 690 · 10 working days

A go or no-go on one market, or a ranked order across up to five: demand evidence rather than assertion, cost to serve, compliance load, and the honest case against entering.

Written as strongly against as for. That is the point of paying for it.

Export Plan for Africa

EUR 990 · 15 working days

For companies who will run Africa with their own people: which markets in what order, through which channels, at what positioning, with the compliance path and the first ten conversations named.

You execute it with your team. If you would rather we executed it, that is a mandate, not this.

How it works

When a file is not enough

If after reading one of these you decide you would rather we did the work, the price of the file is credited in full against a market entry mandate signed within 90 days.

Mandates are the other half of what we do: our teams in Nairobi, Lagos, Lusaka and across the region mapping the real players, approaching decision makers, qualifying them, and arranging the meetings. That is a retainer engagement, and it is described here.

Not sure which one you need?

Tell us your product and target markets. We will point you at the right file, or tell you honestly that none of them fits.
