LME-Grade Commodities Sourcing & International Brokerage

Independent intermediation between producers, trading houses and end buyers. Aluminium, copper, iron ore, coal and sugar — verified supply chains, SGS inspection and irrevocable DLC MT700 payment structure.

Primary metals and agricultural commodities

AKIRA RYU GmbH acts as an independent commodity broker, connecting certified producers and licensed trading houses with end buyers across more than 20 countries. Our mandate model guarantees that every transaction is fully documented, SGS-verified and structured under internationally recognised trade finance instruments.

We work exclusively with LME-grade material and producers whose operations conform to recognised international quality standards. Counterparty due diligence is mandatory on both sides of every trade.

  • Aluminium ingots A7 / P1020A — 99.7% minimum purity, LME-certified, volumes from 50,000 MT/month
  • Copper cathodes Grade A — 99.99% purity, LME-registered warehouses, CIF/FOB terms
  • Iron ore pellets and fines — 62–65% Fe content, certified origin, bulk vessel quantities
  • Thermal and coking coal — GCV and sulphur specifications on request, loading port to port
  • Raw sugar ICUMSA 45 / 100 / 600 — Brazilian and Central American origin, standard trade documentation

Sourcing, verification and chain of custody

Every commodity mandate submitted to AKIRA RYU follows a structured verification process before any offer is forwarded to buyers. Producer documentation is reviewed, SGS or Intertek pre-shipment inspection is agreed, and a full chain-of-custody record is established from loading port to final destination.

We do not act on unverified or unbacked offers. Our reputation in this market is built on the quality of the counterparties we work with, and we apply the same rigour to every mandate regardless of volume or origin.

  • SGS or Intertek pre-shipment inspection at origin
  • Certificate of Origin (COO) — country and producer level
  • Quality Certificate and weight certificate at loading port
  • Full Bill of Lading documentation under standard UCP 600 terms
  • Counterparty KYC on producers and buyers before any engagement

Trade finance and delivery terms

The standard payment instrument for all commodity transactions brokered by AKIRA RYU is the irrevocable Documentary Letter of Credit MT700 (DLC MT700), opened through a first-class international bank. This structure protects both the seller and the buyer, ensuring payment on delivery of compliant documents rather than on trust alone.

Alternative instruments — including SBLC, Bank Guarantee or clean wire transfer on agreed escrow terms — may be considered depending on the counterparties and jurisdiction. Delivery terms follow Incoterms 2020 standards: FOB, CIF and CIP are the most commonly used in our mandates.
