Supply Chain Integrity
Ensure conflict-free sourcing, ESG compliance, and supply chain integrity for critical minerals, timber, and agricultural exports in Africa.
Make sure your minerals, timber and farm products are clean, ethical and legal.
Laws like the US Dodd-Frank Act (Section 1502), the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive and new battery passport rules put heavy pressure on global supply chains. Manufacturers, traders and electronics brands must prove their raw materials are sourced legally and ethically.
If you buy cobalt, coltan, lithium, copper, gold or high-value farm products from the Great Lakes region or the DRC, someone needs to check things on the ground. We are your partner in the field, helping keep your supply chain honest, sustainable and legal.
What we do
Critical Mineral Chain-of-Custody Audits
We physically follow raw materials from where they are dug up, through checkpoints and processing sites, to the export hubs. We catch mixing of illegal minerals, forged papers and informal side trading.
Human Rights & Conflict Funding Checks
Our field teams make surprise visits to mines and farms to see how people work. We look for and record child labor, forced labor, human trafficking and money going to armed groups.
Environmental and Community Checks
We confirm that your suppliers follow local environmental laws, handle waste properly and treat nearby communities fairly. This protects your brand from claims of “greenwashing” and from legal trouble over environmental damage.
Finding weak points on trade routes
We study the main transport routes, including the Northern and Central Corridors, and the way goods move along them. We help you remove the checkpoints where bribes, extortion or product swapping happen.
