Who We Are
Direct Source.
Verified Purity.
NIARA GROUP is an international gold trading company specialising in alluvial gold doré bars and gold dust from direct West African mining partnerships. Buying at the source removes the intermediaries and, with them, the uncertainty about where material has come from.
Every consignment is independently assayed and carries its certificate of origin, export permit and complete chain-of-custody file — the same due-diligence discipline our founder built over twenty-five years in energy trading.

Founder & Managing Director
Built on decades of commodity trading.
NIARA GROUP was founded by Mr. Naeem, who spent over twenty-five years in the Middle Eastern oil and gas sector trading refined fuel commodities — including EN590 10 ppm diesel and Jet A-1 aviation fuel — with counterparties such as Saudi Aramco, Kuwait Oil Company and QatarEnergy.
Recognising the evolving dynamics of global commodity markets, he brought that network, those due diligence protocols and that logistics experience into direct-source gold trading from West Africa.
In commodity trading, trust is built on transparency and reliability. Whether it’s refined fuels or precious metals, our foundation lies in direct sourcing, ethical partnerships, and delivering consistent value to our global clients.
