What we build

Four value chains, one method

We buy raw material from the producers who dig and grow it, process it in our own plants, and export certified, value-added goods.

Why the Congo

Three decades of war. A plant gate that pays.

Eastern Congo has lived with armed conflict for about three decades. Its miners keep working through it. Formalization that pays its own way is where security starts: a secured purchase gate, a published price, processing on site.

How we work

Four principles behind every site

Formalization, scalability, governance and financial sustainability. We engineer each one into the plant, the purchase gate and the model before the first site opens.

The value chain

From raw earth to world markets

We buy raw material at the plant gate, process and refine it in-house, record every custody transfer, and export certified, value-added goods. The margin from each positive site funds security and processing at the next.

Services

Ten disciplines, delivered in-house

The technical, compliance and field work behind every value chain. We do it for our own programme and for partners who need the same.

How we help

Community, education, environment

A plant that pays published prices is only the start. We train people, restore the land we work, and build local capacity that outlasts us.

About GMPG International

GMPG International Corp. is a natural-resources development and consulting group. We put processing plants and secured purchase gates where the raw material comes out of the ground, and we add the value there: tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold, gemstones, oilseed crops for biodiesel, and export crops. Along the way we formalize the artisanal producers who supply them.

Our eastern-DRC programme is where we prove the method. We install security and processing infrastructure at working mine sites, buy raw deliveries at the plant gate at published prices, refine and trace the material in-house, and reinvest the margin into the next group of sites. The material itself pays for the security, not the state.

We build with African partners, for the long term.
