The Architect of African Trade & Mineral Integrity
Zaka Consortium is a boutique strategic consultancy firm operating at the intersection of high-value mineral wealth and emerging market trade. Headquartered in East Africa, we serve as the institutional bridge between international capital and the untapped potential of the region’s primary resources and productive sectors.
Led by Priscilla Mugure, a Senior Mining & Precious Stones Consultant, the Consortium was founded on the principle of Transaction Certainty. We do not simply broker deals; we design the legal, operational, and logistical frameworks that allow wealth to move securely across borders. From the gold mines of Geita to the SME corridors of Namibia, our mission is to transform African potential into global prosperity through rigorous compliance and strategic market linkage.
Why Zaka Consortium?
Moving Beyond Brokerage to Institutional-Grade Advisory.
The Four Pillars
Unrivaled Compliance & Asset Integrity In an industry often clouded by opacity, we provide absolute transparency. Every mineral transaction and SME export mandate is governed by a strict adherence to the Tanzania Mining Act, international AML/KYC standards, and KEBS certifications. We ensure your assets are legally protected and ethically sourced.
“Boots on the Ground” Operational Intelligence We operate where the work happens. Our networks extend into the heart of the Geita, Tanga, and Mererani mining hubs, and our trade corridors reach directly into the Chambers of Commerce in Namibia. We provide real-time, on-site due diligence that remote consultancies cannot match.
Secure Chain of Custody Trust is verified, not assumed. Through our partnerships with world-class security providers like G4S and Brink’s, we manage the movement of high-value cargo under government seal and full insurance. Whether it is a gold consignment or a high-value SME catalogue, your interests are shielded from point-of-origin to destination.
Strategic Market Architecture We understand the “Language of the Corridor.”
We don’t just find buyers; we set up the infrastructure for success—be it establishing physical buying offices for mineral investors in Tanzania or navigating the regulatory “Mode 4” trade complexities for Kenyan SMEs entering the SADC region.
Scale Your Production. Secure Your Future.
Turn geological potential into operational reality through structured funding and strategic partnerships.
Many small-scale mining operations in Tanzania sit on significant deposits but lack the institutional capital to modernize.
Zaka Consortium bridges this gap by matching vetted, licensed miners with international investors.
What we provide: Technical due diligence, Joint Venture (JV) structuring, and access to mechanized mining equipment.
