For logistics and supply chain firms
Win more mining logistics contracts across Africa
Freight, haulage and supply mandates get placed twice: when a mine breaks ground, and again when it starts shipping product. AMIQ pinpoints which sites are building and which are in production right now, mapped by region, alongside the owners and engineers who hand out the work.
Sign up to view every mine moving tonnage, its exact location and the people who hand out haulage and supply mandates.
The freight and supply pitch
Position before the tonnes start moving
Demand for mining logistics flows down two channels. The first is the inbound surge of plant and materials while a mine is under construction. The second is the daily round of product going out and consumables coming back in once it produces. Of 2,245 sites on the AMIQ platform across the continent, 533 are moving tonnage today, which is exactly where a haulage or supply firm should be positioned before the first abnormal load is even booked.
Where the freight is
Two waves of demand, one platform
Producing mines are the deep pool here: 453 of them ship product to rail and port and draw fuel and consumables back in day after day. Construction sites add another 80 placing inbound plant and materials work, while 67 bankable projects queue up the next round of mobilisation jobs.

Your deployment map
Where to position fleets, depots and people
Logistics lives or dies on geography. Think of the chart below as a deployment map for the mining base by zone, telling you where to station fleets, depots, fuel supply and customs cover so they sit on top of the tonnage. The south carries the heaviest load, with the east and west not far behind. Tap any zone to open its dedicated coverage.

From stage to scope
What logistics gets bought at each stage
A mine buys different freight, haulage and supply services as it matures from groundwork to full output. Because the platform flags exactly where each site sits on that curve, you pitch the service being procured right now instead of one a competitor already holds.
Site establishment and mobilisation
Camp and laydown logistics, early earthmoving support and mobilisation of plant and crews as a funded project prepares to break ground.
Inbound equipment and materials
Heavy haulage and abnormal loads for processing plant, mills and mobile fleet, plus structural steel, cement and bulk construction materials to site.
Product haulage to rail and port
Bulk haulage of concentrate, ore and finished product to rail sidings and export terminals, the steady tonnage that defines an operating contract.
Inbound consumables and fuel
Diesel and fuel supply, reagents, grinding media, explosives and spares, plus the warehousing and stockholding that keeps a plant running.
Surge capacity for ramp-up and growth
Extra fleet, depot and customs capacity when a mine ramps up, debottlenecks or expands its footprint. Reach the owner while the surge is being planned, not after a competitor has locked in the lane.
The four-step playbook
Track, reach, position and win
One subscription converts the whole mining base into a weekly call list your sales desk can actually work through.
Track sites moving tonnage
Watch mines as they enter build and production, refreshed as their status changes, so a new haulage or supply lane never opens without your firm noticing.
Reach the people who sign
Verified lines into 746 owners and 661 engineers and consultants: the names who put their signature on freight, fuel and supply deals.
Position around the tonnage
Slice by zone, stage and commodity so your fleets, depots and crews land on the corridors carrying weight, before any asset is committed.
Win the corridor first
Get an alert the instant a site breaks ground or starts producing, putting your bid in front of the operator before any carrier is locked in.
Built for logistics business development
Stop chasing tonnes that are already contracted
By the time a haulier learns that a mine needs tonnage moved, the lane is usually already turning and the owner has settled on a carrier and a rate. The platform pulls you ahead of that moment. It lays out mining across Africa in the shape your network runs, from first ground broken to first concentrate shipped, putting your name in front of the owner while a deal is still on the table. For the wider supplier picture, look at how the platform serves mining services businesses too.
Gauge the weight of demand zone by zone. Maybe your corridors run through Southern Africa, where the count runs highest, or up into East Africa and across West Africa. There is room to grow in the copper belt of Central Africa, and a smaller but real base up in North Africa. Check which mining companies hold the sites along your routes, and watch for new mining projects in Africa as soon as they appear. The payoff is fleets and depots concentrated where loads weigh most and your bid has the best odds.

Common questions
What logistics firms ask about AMIQ
How does AMIQ help a logistics or supply-chain firm win work?
It pinpoints the African mines under construction and those already producing, the two moments when haulage, fuel and supply deals get signed. Because each site carries its owner and engineer contacts, your firm can stake its claim before a corridor is awarded instead of bidding on tonnage that already belongs to a rival carrier.
How many active sites does AMIQ track for logistics demand?
Right now 533 sites are moving tonnage: 453 producing mines shipping product out while drawing fuel and consumables in, plus 80 builds placing inbound plant and materials work. Behind them, 67 bankable projects are queuing the next mobilisation round. All sit inside a continent-wide base of 2,245 sites on the platform.
Whose contact details can I reach?
Subscribers unlock confirmed lines into 746 owners and 661 engineers and consultants, the decision-makers who scope and sign freight, fuel and supply deals. You also see who operates each site, letting you focus on the routes where your firm stands a real shot.
Which regions does it cover?
Every African zone is mapped. Southern Africa tops the count at 835 sites, then East Africa on 586 and West Africa on 578, with Central and North Africa filling out the rest. That breakdown shows you exactly where to base fleets, depots and fuel cover so they sit on the tonnage.
Can I be notified the moment a site starts building or producing?
Save filters for the zones, stages and commodities you serve, and a notification lands in your inbox as soon as a matching site moves. That head start gets you to the owner while the haulage and supply scope is open and no carrier has been chosen yet.
Why does timing matter so much for logistics firms?
There are only two windows worth chasing: ground-breaking, when inbound plant has to reach site, and first production, when product flows out and consumables flow in. Show up after either and the corridor is already running with a competitor. By flagging sites as they hit each window, the platform buys your firm the lead time to lock in the deal first.
