Our Process – ATECOE

Initial Consultation:

Prospective lithium buyers contact ATECOE to express their interest in purchasing lithium from Africa, particularly Zimbabwe. ATECOE conducts an initial consultation with the buyer to understand their specific lithium requirements, including quantity, quality standards, delivery timelines, and budget considerations.

01 Market Analysis and Supplier Identification:

We leverage our network and market expertise to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the lithium market in Zimbabwe. We have reputable lithium suppliers and mining operations in Zimbabwe that meet the buyer's requirements and align with standards for responsible sourcing and sustainability.

02 Supplier Evaluation and Negotiation:

ATECOE conducts due diligence on the identified lithium suppliers, assessing factors such as production capacity, quality control processes, compliance with regulatory standards, and environmental sustainability practices. ATECOE negotiates favorable terms and conditions on behalf of the buyer, including pricing, payment terms, delivery logistics, and any additional requirements or specifications.

03 Quality Assurance and Sample Testing:

ATECOE coordinates the sampling and testing process to ensure the quality and purity of the lithium products meet the buyer's specifications. Samples are collected from the selected suppliers and sent to accredited laboratories for rigorous testing to verify chemical composition, particle size distribution, impurity levels, and other relevant parameters.

04 Contract Finalization and Logistics Planning:

Once the sample testing results meet the buyer's satisfaction, ATECOE facilitates the finalization of the purchase contract between the buyer and the selected supplier. ATECOE assists in drafting and reviewing the contract terms to ensure clarity, transparency, and legal compliance. ATECOE collaborates with logistics partners to plan and coordinate the shipment of the purchased lithium from Zimbabwe to the buyer's desired destination, managing transportation, customs clearance, and documentation requirements.
