Our Business
Integrated value chains.One operating standard.
Seven business lines. One compliance and documentation standard applied across every transaction. From copper extraction in Zambia's Copperbelt to pharmaceutical distribution across East and Southern Africa — each vertical is built to deliver to destination, not just to produce at origin.
Seven capabilities. One operating standard.
Each capability is purpose-built for a specific point in the resource chain — extraction, processing, trade, or last-mile distribution. Together they reduce the coordination friction that erodes margin between African origin and global destination markets.
Scrap Metals
Ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metal aggregation across Zambia's Copperbelt and the wider East and Central African corridor — weight-certified grading and containerised export to regional mills and international smelter supply chains. Documentation prepared to export terminal and end-buyer specification.
Precious Minerals
Origin-verified sourcing of gold, diamonds, and PGMs from Zambia and the DRC corridor — with full assay discipline, counterparty verification, and structured commercial routes to licensed refiners and international buyers. Compliance documentation included at every stage.
Food Commodities
African food commodity sourcing across staple and specialty categories — with Zambian maize, soya, and groundnut supply at the core — phytosanitary compliance, trade documentation, and logistics sequencing built for reliable delivery into regional and international export markets.
Pharmaceuticals
Approved-source pharmaceutical procurement and last-mile distribution across Zambia and the wider East and Southern African corridor. Supply chain coordination covers cold-chain requirements, controlled substance handling, and documentation aligned to WHO, ZAMRA, ZAZIBONA, and national regulatory standards.
Gold Mining
On-site gold mining coordination in Zambia — covering grade management, production stock control, and verified offtake alignment from extraction through to licensed buyer delivery. Reporting prepared to international trade and compliance standards.
Copper Mining
Copper mining operations in Zambia's Copperbelt — linking extraction discipline, grade certification, and export pathway planning to smelters and industrial offtake buyers. Site logistics and dispatch coordination managed to the same documentation standard applied across the wider Mawadco Africa platform.
Copper Treatment Facility
Zambia-origin copper processing — feedstock verification, purity controls, and specification oversight at each treatment stage. Output documentation prepared to smelter, industrial buyer, and export terminal requirements.
Adjacent capabilities. Compounding commercial certainty.
- Each business line operates close to the point of origin — extraction site, aggregation depot, or procurement source — while documentation and compliance systems are built to destination-market standards from the start.
- Logistics planning, counterparty verification, and trade documentation begin at origin — not at the point of export. Earlier coordination eliminates the handoff delays that compress margin and erode buyer confidence.
- Adjacent business lines share infrastructure, compliance frameworks, and commercial relationships — so that growth in one vertical reinforces the others rather than competing for the same operational capacity.
