Loomis International Africa

At Loomis International, we provide secure logistics and transport solutions specifically designed for West Africa. We safely move precious metals and valuables for both large-scale mining operations and artisan and small-scale mining.

Our approach is people-driven. We deliberately recruit experts with deep, hands-on experience of African environments, mentalities, and operational realities. Our team understands how things really work on the ground and is committed to contributing positively to the continent’s development.

Governance, Compliance and Trusted Partnerships

We operate under strict governance, compliance, and security standards, managing security, transport, SOPs, audits, and risk under a single framework with clear accountability. This reduces fragmentation, limits operational risk, and ensures consistent execution from origin to destination.

We have built strong, long-term relationships with trusted local subcontractors across Africa. These partnerships are based on trust, mutual respect, and shared standards. We support our partners, align on security and operational expectations, and treat them as an extension of our own teams.

Key elements of our approach include:

  • Experienced, Africa-focused teams
  • Trusted subcontractor partnerships
  • Clear reporting and proactive risk management
  • Integrated security, logistics, and compliance

Institutional Credibility and Mining Sector Support

Mining is a cornerstone of West Africa’s economy, providing jobs, revenue, and community development. We support both large mines and artisanal operations, including logistics for remote and challenging sites.

Beyond commercial performance, we aim to build credibility with institutional stakeholders. Through our operations and communication, we engage with organisations such as the London Bullion Market Association, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, and relevant NGOs. Our objective is to show that secure logistics, responsible sourcing, and societal responsibility must go hand in hand, delivering reliable, ethical, and professional services across Africa’s mining value chain.

At Loomis International we work to professionalise and formalise the mining sector. Secure logistics is a lever for responsible sourcing, traceability, and sustainable development across the value chain. With our local knowledge and operational expertise, we deliver solutions that are practical, reliable, and aligned with long-term sector growth.
