About us
Rooted in Ecuador. Connected to global markets.
AYAJ WOODS ECUADOR S.A.S. is owner-managed and registered in Guayaquil. Our trading office in the Ajman Free Zone, RG Ayaj Trading FZC, looks after buyers across the Gulf.
Teak plantations, cocoa farms and the fishing port of Manta all lie in Ecuador’s coastal provinces. Three different goods, three supply chains, and the same rule in each: we inspect before we buy, we are there when the container is stuffed, and the paperwork is complete before anything sails.

How we work
What buyers can hold us to
Trading commodities out of Ecuador is not complicated, but it is easy to do badly. These are the points our buyers judge us on.
- 01
We inspect before we pay
Someone from our side sees the goods in the plantation, at the farm or on the quay before money moves.
- 02
Documents match the container
Packing lists, quality certificates and phytosanitary, health or catch certificates are issued for what is actually loaded.
- 03
We are there at loading
We supervise stuffing at Guayaquil, Posorja or Manta and send photographs before the vessel leaves.
- 04
