Tile Supplier in Makeni
Ceramic and porcelain tiles exported from Morbi, India to Makeni, Sierra Leone, in container quantities.
Tile exporter to Makeni.
Lumina Tile supplies ceramic and porcelain tiles to buyers in Makeni from our base in Morbi, Gujarat, the largest tile manufacturing cluster in India. Makeni is the northern regional capital with mining-linked activity, and the buyers we work with there are typically local merchants.
Cargo for Makeni moves through Freetown, then road. Sea transit runs roughly 30 to 42 days from Mundra, transhipped, 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.
A small market with no domestic tile production, with demand concentrated in Freetown's residential and commercial rebuild plus mining-linked construction upcountry. Freetown dominates almost completely; Bo and Kenema are the genuine secondary centres.

Tile importer and distributor supply for Makeni
Most of our Makeni enquiries come from local merchants. 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 Makeni
We ship full containers to Freetown. 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 Makeni does not have to be a single design.

Common questions
Do you supply tiles to Makeni?
+
Yes. We export ceramic and porcelain tiles from Morbi, India to Makeni in container quantities. Cargo routes through Freetown, then road, with sea transit of roughly 30 to 42 days from Mundra, transhipped. We work with local merchants and quote on the Incoterm that suits your operation.
What is the minimum order for Makeni?
+
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 Makeni take?
+
Sea transit runs roughly 30 to 42 days from Mundra, transhipped, entering through Freetown. 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 Sierra Leone?
+
The national standards bureau inspects imported goods and issues certificates of conformity, and a certificate may be required from the bureau or a recognised body before clearance. 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 Makeni?
+
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 Makeni?
+
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.
