Jeety Rubber LLC, one of Liberia’s largest buyers of natural rubber, has gotten an ISO certificate for its technically specified rubber products, demonstrating the company’s commitment to international standards.
The ISO 9001:2015 certification is an internationally respected benchmark for quality management systems. It requires companies to meet stringent criteria across areas such as operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and continuous improvement. It is attained after rigorous inspections and audits; it also highlights the company’s involvement in the process and dedication to quality, efficiency, and global best practices.
The certificate, issued by Société Générale de Surveillance or General Society of Surveillance (SGS) United Kingdom Ltd., one of the world’s most trusted inspection and certification bodies, is valid from January 10, 2025, to January 10, 2028, subject to satisfactory surveillance audits.
The SGS Certificate states “Jeety Rubber LLC has been assessed and certified as meeting the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 for the following activities: purchase, manufacturing, and shipping of natural and technically specified rubber.”
The process to attain an ISO certificate involves detailed evaluations of the company’s operations, from raw material procurement to production and shipping. The certificate is then issued if the said company, as in the case of Jeety Rubber, meets the evaluation standards, demonstrates the company’s value of quality assurance, and adoptions of international best practices in every aspect of its work.

The certification comes about two years after Jeety Rubber commenced operations at its over US$40 million factory in Weala, Margibi County. As part of the company’s long-term plan, it intends to expand into the manufacturing of rubber goods for the Liberian and African markets in the coming years.
According to the Indian business mogul, Upjit Singh Sachdeva, owner of Jeety Rubber LLC, his goal is not just about producing high-quality rubber but also bringing value-added manufacturing to Liberia.

It reflects our vision of making Liberia a global hub for rubber production.”
