Each year, Socotab contracts thousands of specialized farmers to produce the highest quality
oriental tobacco possible. We have dedicated teams of skilled agronomists and field technicians
who are available to provide recommendations and advice, while also providing information
to the company about the evolution of the crops.

When the crops are ready, our technicians assess the quality according to pre-agreed scales
of prices and the tobacco is then transported to our central warehouses.
Payment to the farmers is effected within one week, usually directly to their bank accounts.

Once the tobacco is received in-house, we perform various quality checks after which
we create individual recipes to meet the blend requirements of our various customers.
We then process and pack the tobaccos in our state-of-the-art factories,
while constantly checking the quality of the product in our in-house laboratories.
Finally, the tobaccos are kept in our dedicated storage facilities until such time
as we ship them to our customers.
