CMC's trading division executes the full chain — sourcing, financing, freight, clearing and distribution — across three core sectors. Our customers are wholesalers, retailers, processors and industrial buyers who need a counterparty that delivers.
Our commodities desk originates and trades bulk goods across the SADC region. We work with producers, cooperatives, processors and industrial buyers to move tonnage on terms that pay — both ways.
We distribute fast-moving consumer goods through a network of warehouses and last-mile partners across Zambia and into neighbouring markets. Brand owners and retailers use CMC to access the regional shelf without standing up their own distribution.
We supply mining operators, construction firms and industrial manufacturers with capital equipment, consumables and engineered inputs. Procurement is run as a structured process with clear lead times and accountable counterparties.
Every transaction runs through the same four-stage discipline. No improvisation on margin, control or compliance.
Counterparty due diligence, price discovery, credit assessment, and contract structuring. Nothing moves until the unit economics are clear and the risk is understood.
Trade finance lines drawn, freight booked, clearing and warehousing arranged. We orchestrate the moving parts so the customer sees one timeline and one point of accountability.
Goods delivered, documents reconciled, payments cleared. Every shipment closes with a settled ledger and a recorded audit trail.
Successful flows convert into recurring lanes. Spot deals become contracted programmes. Customers become long-term counterparties.
