Who we are

Vigo Metal Trading is a privately held U.S. trading firm focused on strategic non-ferrous minerals.

We connect Western Hemisphere producers with industrial consumers through structured, transparent commercial frameworks.

We concentrate our sourcing efforts in Mexico, Central America, and South America, strengthening supply chains across the Western Hemisphere. By maintaining close working relationships within these regions, we aim to support diversified and stable material flows into U.S. and international industrial markets.

Our operating model is built on structured commercial alignment. Transactions are organized around recognized market benchmarks and clearly defined settlement terms agreed in advance. This approach promotes clarity in pricing and reduces uncertainty throughout the life of each shipment.

We maintain active oversight of logistics and documentation from origin through delivery. This includes coordination of shipment schedules, alignment of required export documentation, and structured reconciliation of material specifications and assays. Clear processes help minimize administrative friction between producers and end users.

Communication is handled directly and at the appropriate decision-making level. We prioritize transparency, responsiveness, and continuity in our commercial relationships, supporting repeatable transactions rather than one-time trades.
