What the desk trades.

Three books, one compliance architecture. Every line is subject to the same sourcing, traceability and screening standards.

Precious Metals

Gold & Silver

For gold and silver bullion and doré bars we work with vetted suppliers to source from responsible, conflict-free origins, prioritizing compliance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains and ensuring traceability throughout procurement.

  • Ag bullion · industrial silver
  • Digital assets on regulated venues
Battery & Critical Minerals

Lithium, PGMs & Rare Earths

High-value metals and minerals sourced from ethical and conflict-free origins, with adherence to the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and ESG best practice. For platinum and palladium we ensure quality and traceability for industrial and investment demand.

In lithium, copper and rare earth elements we address the growing need for critical inputs, supporting electric vehicle, defence and renewable infrastructure supply chains.

  • Platinum · palladium · PGM concentrates
  • Rare earth elements · critical minerals
Bulk & Soft

Hard & Soft Commodities

For bulk commodities we work with trusted producers to source materials meeting stringent quality standards, with transparency and traceability aligned to international trade and environmental guidelines.

In soft commodities we prioritize supply chain efficiency and sustainability, supporting global food security and agricultural development.

  • Thermal coal · anthracite
  • Iron ore · manganese
  • Sugar · wheat · urea

Global demand is being reshaped by the transition to clean energy. We focus in particular on the Platinum Group Metals and rare earths, where South Africa's significant reserves position it as a key player in meeting evolving industrial and clean-energy demand.

The Desk

A global network, watching every market.

Precious metals, battery minerals, rare earths and soft commodities each move to their own rhythm. Our desk and its network of sources and buyers, built over fifteen years, keep watch across all of them — so we can match verified supply to verified demand wherever the opportunity is.

Why CommoditiesInc

The long game, deliberately.

Our vision

We seek to create and build long-run strategic direct relationships with suppliers and customers, resulting in a successful global supply and demand network — and with sources of trade and project finance and appropriate joint or strategic partners.

Our continuing aim is to maintain a steady growth pattern and achieve a long-run strategic position in the international marketplace. We strive to build a brand synonymous with professionalism and the protection of third-party rights, adhering to the principle of international best practice non-circumvention and non-disclosure at all times.

Game Plan

Supported by our supply chain and strategic partners, we understand the hurdles of the commodities trading business and have developed a sound system to overcome them — built on best practice corporate governance, due diligence and compliance management.

Business Model

We identify and facilitate commodity-based business, investment and joint venture opportunities, managing transactional risk for ourselves and our partners through stringent due diligence, KYC/AML and compliance controls throughout the value chain.

Long-Run Objective

To establish the business in the first tier of the secondary market, with a listing on an international bourse as the overarching future strategic goal, enabling us to leverage global market opportunities.

Compliance & Risk

Traded in compliance, or not at all.

We ensure that we trade in compliance with legislative and regulatory requirements as well as international sanctions. Business that cannot demonstrate clean origin and verifiable title is declined, regardless of margin.
