The questions we hear most often about metals trading, business setup and PPP advisory —
answered directly. If yours isn't here, book the free 30-minute diagnostic and ask it live.
Bridgepath Capital trades gold, silver and copper sourced from verified producers in Africa and delivered to refiners, manufacturers and institutional buyers in the USA, Europe and Asia. Each shipment is accompanied by assay certificates, chain-of-custody documentation and export permits.
Our metals originate from Cameroon, Tanzania, Ghana, the DRC and Zambia. We maintain on-the-ground operations in Cameroon and Tanzania, with regional logistics through Dubai, and verify each producer in person before any contract is signed.
Every producer goes through in-country due diligence covering ownership, licences, export history and site visits. Shipments include independent assay certificates, chain-of-custody records and export permits. We never act as a broker for producers we have not verified ourselves.
Payment terms are negotiated per trade and typically use a letter of credit, telegraphic transfer or an agreed escrow arrangement. Terms are documented in the sales contract before goods leave origin, and shipping documents are coordinated through the appropriate jurisdiction.
Yes. We ship copper and silver to buyers in Europe and Asia, and gold to refiners in the USA, Europe and Asia. Destination and logistics are confirmed during the initial enquiry based on commodity and volume. See our trading services for detail.
Advisory
Bridgepath Capital advises on business setup and market entry in Africa, Dubai and the United States, on metals trading structure and de-risking, and on Public-Private Partnerships. Each engagement is led by the founder and scoped from a free 30-minute diagnostic. Explore all advisory services.
We begin with a diagnostic call to understand your objective, then recommend the right jurisdiction, entity type and licence set. We coordinate incorporation, regulatory filings, bank introductions and compliance setup, and hand over the documents and ongoing advisory through your client portal. See business setup services.
Typical timelines are 1–2 weeks in the United States, 1–4 weeks in Dubai (free zone or mainland), and 2–8 weeks in Africa depending on the country and licence type. Complex regulated activities can take longer and are scoped individually during the diagnostic.
The diagnostic is a no-obligation call with the founder to review your trade, market entry or PPP situation. In 30 minutes we tell you honestly whether we can help and what a realistic path forward looks like. There is no pitch deck and no cost. Book a diagnostic.
Yes. Our Dubai and UAE business setup engagements focus on Free Zone companies, and include support opening a commercial bank account. We coordinate introductions and documentation, though final approval rests with the bank — we cannot guarantee an account will be approved.
Public-Private Partnerships
Bridgepath Capital works on African public infrastructure PPPs across energy, transport, water, social infrastructure, natural resources and digital. We cover project identification, feasibility, transaction structuring, government liaison, investor matchmaking and financial close support. See PPP advisory.
Bridgepath Capital works both sides of the table — sovereign priorities and commercial returns. We help African governments access US and global private capital, and help investors and EPC contractors identify and structure bankable projects.
PPP engagements start with the free 30-minute diagnostic. Bring us the project — government or investor side — and we assess feasibility, stakeholder readiness and a realistic path to bankability before scoping a mandate.
Our PPP mandates range from approximately $10 million to $1 billion USD in project value. Smaller advisory engagements are considered case by case; anything above $1 billion is outside our current scope.
