Beyond a contract — a platform play.

We are seeking a long-term strategic supply partnership to convert an already-secured off-take pipeline into bankable, recurring volumes — and ultimately, a continental distribution platform.

Why Partner With Shama Oil

A commercial accelerator, not a transactional buyer.

From the supply partner's perspective, Shama Oil offers immediate market entry, de-risked execution, and a structured path to continental presence.

01

Immediate Market Access

No market-entry phase. Day-one deployment into a 130,000 MT/month off-take pipeline already secured.

02

De-Risked Execution

Local execution risk absorbed by Shama Oil — clearance, logistics, credit, and regulatory exposure managed locally.

03

Sales Acceleration

Volumes scale faster than building a local subsidiary or competing through unaligned trading intermediaries.

04

Regional Growth

A single partnership unlocks Zambia, Zimbabwe, and a structured pipeline into the rest of SADC.

05

Distribution Platform

A long-term, compounding presence across the continent's fastest-growing industrial corridors.

06

Single Counterparty

One accountability line. Sell once at refinery gate; Shama Oil takes full responsibility for the rest.

Partnership Structure

Clear contributions. Clear expectations.

A structured proposal designed for a long-term, mutually compounding partnership.
