Spartee Intln Ltd, Lagos, Nigeria

It might seem a bit odd to have a name like Spartee Intln Ltd, Lagos, Nigeria but be located in Noida, but that’s how we operate. Our office is at G 58, in Sector 39 of Uttar Pradesh. We’ve been here for a while, tucked away in the 201 303 pin code area. The office is essentially a base where we manage international interests while staying rooted in India. Sector 39 is a relatively calm part of Noida, which is nice when you’re trying to coordinate things across different time zones. We handle a lot of logistics and international trade details from this desk. It’s not a massive corporate headquarters, just a practical space where we can get through the paperwork without too much distraction. Sometimes we stay late because of the time difference with Lagos. The neighborhood is quiet, with plenty of trees and not too much of the usual city noise. We don't have a big staff here, just a few people who know the ropes of the international side of the business. We drink a lot of coffee and keep track of shipments on our screens. It’s a lot of checking and re-checking numbers. We don’t really go in for big marketing pushes; we just focus on making sure the links between Noida and our international partners stay solid and the daily tasks get finished before we head home.
