Managing Director, on behalf of the Board of Directors
Dear partners, clients and friends
It is our honour to welcome you to MECT GLOBAL COMMODITIES FZ-LLC. We established this company in the United Arab Emirates, one of the world’s great crossroads for energy and precious metals, with a clear purpose: to be a dependable bridge between producers and the businesses and nations that rely on them. In markets where trust is the most valuable currency, we have chosen to build our name on transparency, compliance and disciplined execution.
Our business stands on two pillars. In oil and gas, we supply light crude oil and a full range of refined products, from gasoline and jet fuel to diesel and fuel oil, backed by internationally recognised specifications and independent inspection. In gold, we trade 99.999% fine bars carrying the hallmark of LBMA-accredited refiners, with fully traceable sourcing. Both divisions share the same standard: what we promise on paper is exactly what our customers receive.
The demand we have already secured shows the confidence our clients place in us. From 2027 we expect to supply around 4 million metric tonnes of refined products and 3 metric tonnes of gold each year, together with substantial crude oil volumes, and these figures are set to grow steadily year after year. We will meet that growth with strong governance, prudent risk management and the right partners in shipping, finance and inspection.
Our ambition goes beyond trading. From 2028 we plan to invest in the Kingdom of Cambodia, developing Oil Field Block A and building the platform needed to secure an exclusive supply for the Government of Cambodia at a low and stable flat price, delivered in cycles of 100,000 MT and by VLCC for crude. This investment is a long-term commitment to Cambodia’s energy security and economic development, and to the wider Asian markets we serve.
None of this is possible without integrity. Every counterparty we work with passes rigorous KYC, anti-money-laundering and sanctions screening, and our people are held to the highest ethical standards. We would rather decline a transaction than compromise the trust placed in us.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and our entire team, we thank our clients, suppliers, financial institutions and government partners for their confidence. We look forward to building lasting partnerships with you and to growing together for many years to come.
With sincere regards,
Mr. ME Sithun, Managing Director
