  • Strategic Pricing: 8,200–9,500/ton (CIF USA), 10–15% below Canadian alternatives, thanks to low extraction costs and duty-free access under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA).

Proven Impact on US Supply Chains
Since 2016, Tamim has supplied 5,800+ metric tons of copper wire to American industries, including:

  • Automotive: Copper wire harnesses for EV giants like Tesla and Rivian.
