📦 Overview of Logistics Process
Preparation
After final verification and documentation, your gold is professionally packaged in tamper‑evident, discreet containers. Weighing and sealing are witnessed and recorded.
Secure Carrier Pickup
Brinks or Loomis collect the shipment directly from our vault. The package is loaded into an armoured vehicle, and a unique tracking number is assigned.
Transit & Delivery
Your gold travels via secure air or road network to your specified address. You receive milestone updates and can track the shipment 24/7.
🛡️ Insurance Coverage for Gold Exports
Lloyd's of London Policy
All shipments are insured under a comprehensive all‑risk policy underwritten by Lloyd's of London syndicates. Coverage begins the moment the gold leaves our vault and continues until you accept delivery.
What Is Covered
- Theft and armed robbery
- Total loss or physical damage
- Damage during transit (e.g., fire, flood, accident)
- Disappearance or non‑delivery
Valuation
Insurance value is based on the current market price of gold at the time of shipment, as verified by the assay certificate. Premiums are calculated as a small percentage of the declared value and are included in your shipping quote.
Claims Process
In the unlikely event of a claim, our team works directly with the insurer to ensure prompt resolution. You receive full support and guidance through the process.
⚖️ Compliance with Legal and International Standards
Our logistics and insurance operations are fully aligned with Ugandan and international regulations, ensuring that your shipment is not only safe but also legally compliant:
