A small team that knows both ends of the road.

Founder-led, based in Dubai, and in Nairobi often enough to know the people we buy from.

How Poppin Global started

Poppin Global started with two questions that kept coming up. Buyers in the Gulf asked, can you get this from Kenya? Buyers in Kenya asked, can you get that from Dubai? Both wanted the same thing: someone reliable in the middle.

We are a founder-led team based in Dubai, and we spend real time in Nairobi. That's deliberate. In this trade, a signature on paper means little unless you know the person behind it, so we meet our sources and our buyers face to face wherever we can.

We source at the origin, work with licensed partners, and keep the paperwork clean, so that what we promise and what arrives are the same thing.

What you can hold us to

  • Nothing moves until you've seen the details and said yes.
  • The paperwork is done properly at every step.
  • We would rather earn your repeat order than your first one.

A young company, honestly

We are a young company, so we would rather show you than tell you. Ask us for our trade licence, details of our sources and photos from the origin.
