About BLK Global

BLK Global PLC operates a technology-driven marketplace for sourcing and trading commodities and raw materials, aiming to digitize a multi-trillion-dollar global market. The company provides a digital infrastructure layer for global commodity trade, connecting buyers, suppliers, and logistics providers on a single platform. This integrated model is designed to increase efficiency, transparency, and access in an industry traditionally characterized by intermediaries and fragmented supply chains.The platform's core components include a marketplace for direct sourcing from global producers, an end-to-end logistics and fulfillment service through a dedicated shipping division, and a data and insights division to support procurement and trading decisions. By integrating these services, BLK Global captures value across the transaction lifecycle while delivering cost efficiencies to its users. The company's stated objective is to establish the global "spot market" for commodities. Founded by Gabriele Dadò, BLK Global was created to address a market gap where small and medium-sized enterprises faced barriers to entry in a sector dominated by large traders and banks. Dadò's vision was to democratize trade by creating a free online market where businesses of any size can transact directly and transparently. The company has reported significant growth, with revenues reaching £8.5 million in 2024 and the total value of stock for sale on its marketplace reaching $11.7 billion by late 2025. In November 2025, the Glasgow-based company completed its conversion to a Public Limited Company (BLK Global PLC), signaling its intent for a stock market listing to fund acquisitions, enhance global visibility, and access further capital for expansion. Earlier in 2025, the company secured a £50 million equity investment from Nimbus Capital.
