Commodity trading
Minerals, timber and industrial commodities, traded in compliance with Ghana's export regulations.
Overview
Sigman Enterprise trades and distributes precious minerals, timber and industrial commodities, working with suppliers and buyers both in Ghana and abroad.
Compliance is treated as a condition of doing business, not an afterthought. Every transaction is handled in line with Ghana's export regulations and established trade ethics.
The company's own haulage capacity supports the trading division, so movement from source to buyer stays under the same management.

What's included, and what isn't.
Being explicit about the second column is the point. It is cheaper for both of us to disagree now than on the day.

- Verification of how a consignment was sourced
- Export documentation prepared ahead of movement
- Movement of the consignment on our own fleet
- Pricing agreed per transaction or under a supply partnership
What’s not

- Financing of a buyer’s purchase
How we handle compliance.
Every transaction is handled in line with Ghana’s export regulations and established trade ethics. Documentation is prepared before cargo moves, not after. Where a transaction requires a licence or permit we do not hold, we say so at the outset rather than proceeding.
As a supplier, or as a buyer.
As a supplier
- Clear terms agreed before a consignment is committed
- Pricing agreed per transaction or under a supply partnership
- Movement handled by our own fleet rather than subcontracted out
As a buyer
- Verified sourcing you can trace back through the consignment
- Compliant documentation prepared ahead of movement
- Delivery under one management line, from purchase to arrival
How this is priced.
- Distance
- Point-to-point kilometres and return leg
- Weight / volume
- Load against the unit's rated capacity
- Cargo type
- Handling, securing and equipment required
- Route conditions
- Access, road condition and turnaround time
- Frequency
- One-off trip, scheduled runs or contract volume
We quote in writing. For repeat volume we agree a rate schedule so you are not renegotiating every load.
What we need from you.
Send these six things and the first reply can be a quote rather than a question.
Pickup and delivery addresses
Where the load starts and where it has to end up, as precisely as you can give it.
Cargo description
What it is, how it is packaged, and whether it is palletised, bagged, loose or containerised.
Approximate weight or volume
An estimate is enough. If you are not sure, tell us what you do know and we will work from that.
Preferred dates
The window you need it moved in, and whether the date is fixed or flexible.
Site access restrictions
Height or weight limits, soft ground, narrow approaches, or anything that affects turnaround.
Special handling or documentation
Securing requirements, permits, or paperwork the destination expects on arrival.
