AYYS
Structured access to global commodity markets
Strategic sourcing, transaction structuring and disciplined physical execution for primary, secondary and complex commodity flows.
Independent multi-commodity trading platform, AYYS structures, secures and executes physical commodity flows across primary, secondary and off-specification markets.
AYYS is an independent multi-commodity trading platform positioned across primary, secondary and complex markets, with strong capabilities in international sourcing, contractual structuring and physical execution. We connect producers, industrial buyers, traders and financial institutions through robust, documented supply solutions tailored to the constraints of each corridor.
AYYS operates across ferrous and non-ferrous metals, critical minerals, recycled materials, agricultural inputs and industrial supply. We work across international corridors by connecting production basins, logistics capacity and industrial demand centres.
Each transaction is subject to counterparty onboarding, KYC/AML review, sanctions screening and documentary controls calibrated to the corridor, product, Incoterm and payment instrument.
AYYS covers the full commodity spectrum — from standard primary flows to the most complex secondary and off-specification materials. In physical commodities, market access, documentation discipline and execution quality are decisive competitive advantages.
AYYS structures commodity flows across major regions, linking upstream production basins with industrial demand hubs. The model combines proximity to origin markets, relationship depth, logistics agility and documentary control across international corridors.
Origin and sourcing markets with direct access to production basins.
Distribution, project supply and routing into consumption markets.
Trading hub, contractual structuring and logistics coordination.
From sourcing to delivery, AYYS combines the critical levers of a reliable supply platform: market access, structuring, logistics, compliance and transaction support.
AYYS trades a broad range of metals, ores, concentrates and mineral products for industrial markets worldwide. Multi-origin sourcing is designed to strengthen continuity, competitiveness and supply resilience.

AYYS develops alternative sourcing solutions from scrap and recycled materials. We structure complex secondary flows and facilitate their reintegration into industrial cycles to secure supply, improve traceability and optimise material value.
Sourcing, sorting and trading of industrial and post-consumer metal scrap: ferrous, non-ferrous and alloys, with access to producers, recyclers and collectors in Europe, Africa and Asia.
Placement of flows constrained by purity, composition or traceability, structured for smelters, refiners and secondary producers seeking competitive supply outside standard channels.
Assessment, structuring and placement of secondary materials to maximise industrial reuse value while combining purchasing competitiveness, documentary security and resource circularity.
AYYS handles materials outside standard specifications: low-grade products, off-specification materials, low purities and complex compositions. Where some operators withdraw, we structure access, placement and value recovery.
Concentrates or metals with grades below LME or standard specifications.
Materials outside standard size, downgraded or not aligned with buyer specifications.
