Reliable Energy Product Supply for Regional and International Buyers

HH Strategic Metals supports the sourcing and supply of selected energy products from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Central African trade networks, including charcoal, coal, and other energy-related commodities for household, commercial, and industrial buyers.
In addition to its rich deposits of minerals and gemstones, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) also produces important energy resources used across Central and East Africa. One of the most widely used energy products in the region is charcoal, commonly known locally as Makala.
Charcoal plays a crucial role in everyday life throughout the region, serving as a primary fuel source for cooking, heating, and small-scale commercial food preparation. Despite the availability of alternative fuels in some urban areas, charcoal remains the most reliable and accessible household energy solution.
HH Strategic Metals supports regional supply chains by connecting responsibly sourced energy products from eastern Congo to local and regional markets. Charcoal is produced by carbonizing wood through controlled heating processes, resulting in a lightweight, black, porous material that burns hotter and longer than raw wood.
Charcoal produced in eastern Congo is widely used because it offers several advantages:
High and consistent heat output
Long burning duration
Easy transportation and storage
Suitable for traditional charcoal stoves
Reliable fuel for restaurants and food vendors
The charcoal is typically packaged in 25 kg, 50 kg, or 70 kg sacks and distributed across local markets.

Major distribution centers include:
  • Goma — Primary logistics hub on Lake Kivu with established transport networks
  • Bukavu — Key trading center with access to South Kivu production areas
