For Suppliers

Move verified tonnage into qualified offtake.

Submit supply capability and the desk will work it forward to a qualified buyer-side principal. Producer-direct, refinery letter, mill certificate or signed mandate — once verified, the path between cargo and lift gets shorter.

Where the desk is most useful

For producers and mandate-holders that need a clean offtake.

Bassie works best where a real seller — a refinery, a smelter, a mill, a producer or an authorised mandate — has tonnage to move on terms that will settle, against a counterparty that survives KYC, sanctions screening and bank scrutiny.

If your offer arrived through three forwarded emails and a friend-of-a-friend, this is not the right channel. We work with named principals and authorised mandates. The first cargo is the slowest; lifts after that move on the same documentation.
