  • Carrier contracting and due diligence handled entirely by A-flow
  • Loading coordination at your nominated terminal or depot
  • Border, customs, and transit coordination on cross-border routes
  • Live tracking, seal verification, and signed proof of delivery

Option 2

Fuel procurement & delivery

One accountable partner, from source to tank.

A-flow sources, purchases, transports, and delivers fuel to your site through Zambian and Congolese petroleum companies in which it holds commercial interests or with which it has supply agreements. These companies hold every licence required to import, store, transport, and sell petroleum products in their respective countries.

  • Supply through fully licensed partner companies in Zambia and the DRC
  • Flexible sourcing via Dar es Salaam, Beira, local depots, and other regional routes
  • Transport by A-flow's contracted carrier network

A-flow sits between your mine and the network. We contract the carriers, carry out due diligence, and facilitate every order until delivery is confirmed.

What A-flow handles

We manage the chain. You receive confirmed fuel.

A-flow contracts the carriers, carries out the due diligence, and facilitates every order from the mining company's purchase order until the fuel and supplies are delivered and confirmed.

Carrier contracting

A-flow contracts the transporters directly. Your mine does not need to negotiate, contract, or manage individual carriers.

Due diligence

Every carrier and supplier is checked by A-flow: registration, licensing, ownership, insurance, vehicles, drivers, and safety record.

Order facilitation

We run each order from your purchase order through sourcing, loading, transport, and border clearance, keeping your team updated.

Delivery confirmation

An order is only closed when delivery is verified at site, reconciled against loaded volume, and confirmed by your receiver.

Every fuel a mining operation depends on
