WELCOME TO HUGO COMMODITIES
​
​
Over the years, Hugo Commodities has developed an exciting commodities business not only in the West Africa sub-region but in Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond. The vision of the company’s Founders is to create a business that can thrive on in the continent and beyond under all political circumstances.
​
Our aim is to establish ourselves as a credible provider of commodities in today’s dynamic current and new emerging commodities markets. We believe that there has never been a better time to work with local commodities merchants (suppliers and exporters).
At Hugo Commodities, we do not measure the success of our business by our size, but by the quality of our products and the service we provide to all our customers.​ We achieve this by the support we provide to our associates, in all areas of our business. We understand the benefits of working and developing local partnerships in West Africa; it has become the backbone of our business and has proven to be evident all over the continent.

WHAT WE DO
​
Hugo sources gold from mining co-operatives, owners of mining concessions and small-scale miners. Procuring gold in this manner-allows most of the miners to focus on what they do best; extract gold.
Hugo and others in the supply chain, part-assist with complex governmental policies/regulations regarding exports, international finance, marketing, loss prevention (security) and KYC processes required for international transactions.
Hugo buys gold with purity from 85% and above. By buying gold literally at the entrance of the small-scale mines-on the spot-we are able to pass on savings to our of-takers. We also buy in any form after smelting and assaying in any of our approved locations in your localities. We procure and market gold from countries in the region and beyond including Ghana, Sierra Leone, Mali and Burkina Faso, as well as other sources, including Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda.

Hugo is sensitive to the environmental impact of new products and processes and recognizes and responds constructively to host communities’ concerns about health and safety aspects of its operations.
As a low-cost gold producer focused on the marketing of refined and unrefined gold, the company is looking to expand its operations with the acquisition of mining concessions in the Eastern and Western regions of Ghana.
Ghana, which is the base of Hugo Precious Metal’s operations in the region, is a country with solid economic potential and immense business opportunities for the development of new markets. Besides the fact that it is blessed with numerous natural resources, a fast expanding economy and a growing middle class, it is also well known for the exceptional hospitality of these people.
