Southern & West Africa · Physical commodities
Two commodities.
One chain of custody.
We move what Africa produces and what its markets consume — gold doré aggregated from artisanal supply, and refined diesel and jet fuel landed CIF into the region’s ports and grids.

The operating model
One company. Two physical trades.
A decade of fuel-import infrastructure in Southern Africa, paired with a seller-side gold doré desk sourcing directly from the continent’s artisanal base. Both run under the same discipline: licensed logistics, on-the-ground presence, and documentation built to clear the first time.
Track 01
Gold Doré, Seller-Side
Direct aggregation from artisanal producers in Sierra Leone, Zambia, and the wider West and Southern African region — buyer-ready lots with in-country logistics, export licensing, and liquidity to settle on the ground.
- → 300–500kg aggregated lots
- → Cash-and-carry or CIF paths
- → On-site assay before commitment
Track 02
Refinery-Direct Fuel
Diesel 10 & 50 PPM and JET A1, imported CIF through Southern African and international ports, plugged into national grids — with storage and guarantee finance where the bottleneck isn’t product, but paperwork and capital.
- → CIF import & discharge network
- → On-grid solutions via Matola & Durban
- → Storage & finance facilitation
Geography
Built where the commodity actually moves.
Gold sourcing anchored in Sierra Leone and Zambia, with extended reach across West and Southern Africa. Fuel landed through Beira, Matola, Durban, Cape Town, Walvis Bay and beyond — sourced from international loading ports including Rotterdam, Fujairah, Singapore and Houston.

Operating discipline
An operating vehicle — not a pass-through middleman.
Across both desks, the signature is the same: package creative solutions to the bottlenecks that slow product into market — whether the product is a kilogram of doré or a parcel of diesel.
01
Licensed logistics
Fuel-division licensing and in-country gold export partners structured so documentation clears — not loops back.
02
On-the-ground presence
Seller-side aggregation and fuel infrastructure rooted in Southern and West Africa. Presence first; theatre never.
03
Discretion by default
Client relationships across both trades are largely protected by confidentiality. We trade volume, not headlines.
