Raw materials

Raw materials sourcing across Africa

Matta connects industrial buyers with verified suppliers of the raw materials that production depends on — coordinating verified supply, logistics, trade finance and settlement across African markets.

For manufacturers, that means sourcing the production materials their processes depend on with confidence in specification, quantity and quality. For suppliers, it means reaching credible industrial demand through infrastructure built for repeat trade.

What raw materials does Matta source?

Matta sources raw materials used in manufacturing and industrial production — including metals such as aluminium, copper and steel, plus silica, limestone and gypsum, rubber, textile fibres, and paper, pulp and packaging materials.

Verified supply

Raw materials, verified before value changes hands

Matta verifies supply physically through independent inspection, custody and confirmation of specification, quantity and quality before value changes hands. This creates greater confidence that delivered materials match the agreed requirement and makes raw-material sourcing more dependable.
