What we do
EDSON Resources is a natural resources company focused on five core pillars:
Origination
Born in Africa, EDSON is a Sub-Saharan-focused originator of physical commodities and projects.
With a physical presence across the SADC region, EDSON identifies and executes a broad range of services for its partners.
There is no substitute for boots on the ground—while EDSON is young, its network is well established.
Investment
EDSON provides financing to junior, medium, and large mining outfits. As an agile group, EDSON has a healthy risk appetite for projects throughout the supply chain—from mine to end user. This includes exploration, project financing, working capital, production finance, asset investment, and supply chain value propositions.
Through strategic partnerships, co-investment opportunities, equity and debt solutions, and a range of financial tools, EDSON prides itself on managing capital and risk from inception through to realization.
Logistics & Supply Chain Management
Through its extensive transport network, EDSON manages the full supply chain from pit to port—and beyond. Navigating the complexities of the African landscape requires a specialized skillset, which EDSON possesses.
Our dedicated in-house “engine room” is based in Cape Town and manages every aspect of the EXW-to-CIF commodity chain through meticulous stock and quality controls and reporting.
Whether it’s a single container or a Panamax vessel, EDSON ensures timely and efficient delivery.
Risk Management
“Risk manage, then trade.”
EDSON focuses on mitigating risks across the commodity supply chain—from market price and foreign exchange exposure to freight volatility and counterparty risk.
Working hand-in-hand with trade and logistics operations, EDSON is committed to minimizing risk and maximizing returns for its suppliers and partners.
Principal Trading
As a principal, EDSON focuses on EXW purchasing at the mine and CIF sales and marketing to end users. We offer trade services to our partners at any point in the commodity chain.
While EDSON is primarily a risk management and supply chain specialist, optimizing trade variables is essential to running a successful commodity business.
EDSON trades as principal and does not offer brokerage services.
