Supply and logistics services for miners have traditionally been erratic and of substandard quality in Africa. Part of the problem is that the major international players are primarily focused on export, which means miners are not their main priority. The other part of the problem is the local providers filling the gap lack the safety, security, operational and ethical practices international mining companies work to.
Until now, you’ve had little choice but to accept that your goods would go missing, service standards would be low, and costs would be high. That you would need to invest overhead in a larger procurement team to minimise the operational risks as best you could. And that you would need to compromise the way you do business in order to mine in Africa. That’s all changed with ESSE.
We are the dedicated supply and logistics service for mining companies, mining contractors and civil contractors operating across West Africa. We provide a high-quality and reliable supply solution, from procurement of consumables, parts and earthmoving equipment, though to logistics and delivery to your site.
What we excel at delivering for our customers is certainty. We have invested in the right systems and processes, people, transport and heavy lifting equipment, warehouses and facilities so you can have confidence that you’ll get your supplies and equipment when you need them. What’s more, you’ll know that the standards you value most, around safety, sustainability and labour practices, are the same standards we value.
ESSE is the supply and logistics service you’ve been asking for.
