WE ARE STRATOS
Redefining Africa's Marine Fuel Supply Chain
Since 2018, Stratos Trading has grown from a single AGO importation into one of West Africa's most trusted names in bunker supply, petroleum exports, and commodity trading.
About Us
A Trading Company Built on More Than Ambition
Stratos Trading Limited is a global commodity trading and marine fuel supply company headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria, with a strong and growing operational presence across West Africa.
We specialise in the trading, export, and delivery of refined petroleum products, with a particular focus on marine bunkering and international petroleum exports. From our earliest days as an AGO importer to our current position as an NMDPRA-approved, IBIA-member bunker supplier with a dedicated fleet and over 20,000MT of storage capacity, everything we have built has been in service of one goal: to be the partner that the maritime and energy industries in West Africa can genuinely rely on.
We serve a broad spectrum of clients including international shipping companies, onshore and offshore operators, and port-based operations across West African waters and beyond. And we do it to a standard that we believe has no ceiling.
OUR STORY
Eight Years of Building Something That Lasts
From a single cargo in 2018 to a fleet of five vessels and consolidated VLSFO trade volumes across West Africa, our growth has been deliberate, and our standards have never moved.
Our Mission
To make innovative, market-tailored solutions by harnessing the strength of our people, the power of information, and the possibilities of technology.
Our Vision
To be Africa's foremost and most trusted bunker supply and commodity trading partner, recognised for exceptional efficiency and a transformative impact across the region.
What We Stand For
S.T.R.A.T.O.S.
Our name is not just a brand. It is a commitment. Every letter stands for a value we hold ourselves to, in every transaction, with every client, across every port we serve.
S — Strong
We operate from a position of strength: financial, operational, and reputational. Strength is what allows us to deliver when the market is difficult and others cannot.
T — Tenacious
The energy trading industry does not reward passivity. We pursue the best outcomes for our clients with relentless focus, regardless of the obstacles in the way.
R — Resilient
Markets fluctuate. Supply chains face pressure. We have built our infrastructure and sourcing network specifically to remain dependable when conditions are at their most challenging.
A — Accountable
Every delivery. Every certificate. Every report. We own what we do, and we stand behind it completely.
T — Transformative
We are not content to simply participate in West Africa's energy sector. We intend to help shape it, raising standards, expanding access, and proving what is possible when a company operates with genuine commitment.
O — Outperforming
Good enough is not a standard we recognise. We measure ourselves against the best in the global bunkering industry, and we hold our operations to that benchmark.
S — Strategic
Every decision we make is considered, deliberate, and aligned with the long-term interests of our clients and our company. We do not react. We plan.
