Tile Supplier in Thiès
Ceramic and porcelain tiles exported from Morbi, India to Thiès, Senegal, in container quantities.
Tile exporter to Thiès.
Lumina Tile supplies ceramic and porcelain tiles to buyers in Thiès from our base in Morbi, Gujarat, the largest tile manufacturing cluster in India. Thiès is an industrial city inland from Dakar and itself a centre of ceramic production, and the buyers we work with there are typically regional distributors.
Cargo for Thiès moves through Dakar, then road. Sea transit runs roughly 30 to 40 days from Mundra, usually with one transhipment, so most buyers plan a reorder before the previous container clears. We quote on the Incoterm that suits your side, and the technical file travels with the shipment.
Senegal is one of West Africa's more developed construction markets, with Dakar acting as a distribution point for the surrounding region. French-language documentation is expected throughout.

Tile importer and distributor supply for Thiès
Most of our Thiès enquiries come from regional distributors. If you are importing to stock and resell, we can hold artwork and run repeat lots so your shelf stays consistent between shipments. If you are buying against a specific project, we can produce to the drawing and grade the lot to the standard the specification asks for.
Bulk and container-load orders to Thiès
We ship full containers to Dakar. A 20ft container carries roughly 1,100 to 1,400 square metres depending on size and thickness, and a 40ft roughly double that. Mixed containers across sizes, surfaces and designs are normal for us, so a first order to Thiès does not have to be a single design.

Common questions
Do you supply tiles to Thiès?
+
Yes. We export ceramic and porcelain tiles from Morbi, India to Thiès in container quantities. Cargo routes through Dakar, then road, with sea transit of roughly 30 to 40 days from Mundra, usually with one transhipment. We work with regional distributors and quote on the Incoterm that suits your operation.
What is the minimum order for Thiès?
+
One full container. A 20ft container holds roughly 1,100 to 1,400 square metres depending on tile thickness and size, and a 40ft holds roughly double. If you need several sizes or designs, we can mix them within one container rather than making you order a container of each.
How long does shipping to Thiès take?
+
Sea transit runs roughly 30 to 40 days from Mundra, usually with one transhipment, entering through Dakar. Production time is separate and depends on whether the design is in stock or being run for you. We confirm both dates at the quote stage rather than after you commit.
What documentation do you provide for import into Senegal?
+
Import documentation is submitted in French, and a customs valuation programme applies to containerised consignments. Every shipment travels with the packing list, commercial invoice, certificate of origin and the full technical file, so your customs broker and your customer both have what they need.
Can you match a tile we are already selling in Thiès?
+
Usually. Send a photo and the dimensions and we will look for the closest design in the library. We hold the artwork for everything we produce, so once you have chosen a design, repeat orders match your first shipment rather than drifting shade to shade.
What sizes and finishes can you ship to Thiès?
+
The full range: 49 sizes across eight categories from 5 x 25 cm subway up to 160 x 320 cm slabs, in 15 surface finishes, 6 to 20 mm thick. Available finishes vary by size, and the size chart on this page lists which surfaces each size is produced in.
