What Jonmoore International does

Jonmoore International Ltd is a Ghana-headquartered, privately held project logistics company founded in 1998, providing specialized heavy haulage, crane and heavy lift, warehousing, international freight forwarding, offshore logistics, and expert project handling to enterprise clients in the mining, oil and gas, energy, and industrial sectors across Ghana and West Africa. Its service platform is built around a fleet of rare, capital-intensive equipment — including what the company describes as Ghana's only and largest 400-ton girder crane, a 600T Terex Demag crawler crane, a 480-metric-ton Self Propelled Modular Trailer, and a Liebherr LTM 1250 all-terrain crane — deployed alongside a three-site yard network in Tema (HQ), Takoradi, and Kumasi.

The company generates revenue primarily through project-based contracts and equipment rental engagements with enterprise clients, including mining operators (Goldfields, Moolmans/Iduapriem, Burkina Mining Company, Willstan), oil and gas projects (Jubilee Field, TEN/Orsam), power infrastructure (Edikan Power Station), and industrial clients (Carmeuse). Pricing is delivered through bespoke project quotations rather than tiered published rates. Distribution is direct enterprise sales via a field-based engagement model, supplemented by referral flow from its BigMove European association membership and content marketing through its company website. The company holds ISO 45001:2018 certification, has indicated AI-driven operations and fleet modernization, and has publicly stated expansion plans into East Africa and the Caribbean. Jonmoore is a founder/family-controlled private limited company with no disclosed external funding, parent entity, or institutional shareholders.

• Imperial Logistics: Africa-focused logistics and freight management group with operations across multiple African markets. Comparable in geographic focus on the African continent and freight forwarding capabilities, though broader in scope than Jonmoore's specialist heavy haulage focus.
• STAG (Sub-Saharan Transport Group): African-focused transport and logistics group with cross-border trucking, abnormal load, and project cargo capabilities across multiple African countries. Comparable in providing heavy haulage and project logistics for mining and industrial clients in West Africa.

Direct peers

• Sarens: World-leading heavy lifting, engineered transport, and crane rental company serving petrochemical, power, mining, and wind sectors. Comparable to Jonmoore in offering integrated heavy haulage with modular trailer and crane solutions, but at multinational scale.
• Mammoet: Global heavy lifting and abnormal load transport specialist with crane and modular trailer fleets across mining, oil & gas, and energy projects. Closest direct competitor in Jonmoore's core heavy lift and project logistics niche, though operating at significantly larger global scale.
• Fagioli: Italian-headquartered heavy lifting and transportation specialist offering engineered heavy haulage, modular trailers, and cranes for oil & gas, power, and infrastructure projects worldwide. Directly comparable in service mix and project-based contract model.
• Vanguard Logistics Services: Project cargo and heavy lift freight forwarder with experience in mining, oil & gas, and infrastructure projects across Latin America, Africa, and other emerging regions. Comparable as a specialized project cargo logistics provider rather than a generalist forwarder.
