Granite quarried in Matobo District.
Finished in Bulawayo.
Delivered across the Gulf.
Matobo HoldCo is a vertically integrated granite quarrying, beneficiation and export platform. Every block that leaves Zimbabwe is already cut, polished and graded — built around Zimbabwe's beneficiation law, not caught out by it.
- Finished in Zimbabwe before export
- Physical samples before specification
- One accountable Gulf desk
Platform
One quarry face. One finishing line. One export desk.
Matobo HoldCo runs the full chain from rock face to Gulf delivery, rather than handing granite between unrelated traders at each step. That means one point of accountability for quality, timing and documentation — from the block we quarry to the slab a buyer receives.
Zimbabwe's raw mineral export laws mandate in-country value addition. We embrace this fully: 100% of our extraction is processed in Bulawayo, delivering calibrated, certified architectural slabs directly into Gulf ports.
02. Beneficiation
Bulawayo Plant
Multi-blade gang saws and automated polishing lines cut, gauge, and finish slabs to international ASTM/EN standards.

Specifications
ASG grading & surface finishes
Our grading protocols are designed to keep optical depth, crystal variance and dimensional tolerance under a single accountable selection system. ASG-1 is the highest grade. Laboratory values and datasheets can be issued against a nominated colorway at enquiry.
ASG-1 · highest is ASG-1
Highest selection
The tightest visual selection. Reserved for programmes where colour depth and crystal control are the primary specification criteria.
Characteristics
Highest visual uniformity. Deep, even groundmass with the least accepted crystal variance and the strictest face-matching discipline.
Applications
Prestige hotel lobbies, executive towers, landmark interiors and elevations where the stone is the principal architectural statement.
Format
Typically specified as jumbo slabs for bookmatching and large unbroken faces. Exact formats confirmed against current production.
Mirror Polish
High reflectance gloss accentuating crystalline depth in darker colorways.
Satin Honed
Smooth, non-reflective matte finish suited for contemporary floors and walls.
Thermal Flamed
Textured slip-resistant surface engineered for high-traffic exterior pavements.
Leathered
Tactile undulating surface offering rich texture and low maintenance.
Catalogue
Nominated colorways
The range is offered as architectural granite, not as a decorative marble substitute. Faces are selected, graded and finished in Bulawayo before they enter the Gulf corridor. Pricing is issued against project specification — request a quote or a physical sample set.
Nero Zimbabwe
A deep black Zimbabwean granite selected for architectural programmes that require a dark, sober field. Sample before specification — natural crystal structure varies by face.
Matobo Grey
A grey granite from the Matobo range, intended for contemporary interiors and elevations that need a quieter, cooler field than the black colorways.
Matobo Pink
A warmer pink granite selected for programmes that want geological colour without departing from an institutional, architectural register.
Verde Matobo
A green-cast granite from the Matobo range. Specified where the project requires a distinct colorway rather than a neutral grey or black field.
Matobo Brown
A brown granite colorway for interiors and elevations that need warmth against timber, bronze or sand-toned architectural palettes.
Matobo Blue
A blue-cast granite selected as a distinctive architectural colorway. Availability and face character are confirmed at sample stage.

Supply Chain
The Matobo-to-Gulf corridor
A finished-stone corridor from Zimbabwe to the GCC. The route is designed for resilience and export readiness, not for a trader-to-trader handoff at each port.
ZimbabweBeiraCapeFujairahDubai
Quarry to plant
Dimension blocks are extracted in Matobo District and finished in Bulawayo before they are released for export.
Eastern seaboard
The eastern ocean gate is held as a working corridor for finished stone leaving southern Africa.
Cape of Good Hope
Cape routing is retained as an alternative seaway so the corridor is not dependent on a single ocean passage.
Bonded storage
Fujairah is the Gulf holding point for bonded storage and regional distribution into the GCC.
Commercial desk
Customs, contracting and site delivery are managed through Dubai Stone Gate DMCC for GCC programmes.
Community
Committed to Matobo & Zimbabwe
Natural resource development should leave skilled work, plant capacity and local infrastructure in the district that produces the stone — not only an export invoice.
Local value addition
Retaining high-skilled cutting, polishing, and engineering jobs inside Zimbabwe.
Environmental stewardship
Water recycling throughout processing facilities and progressive quarry rehabilitation.
Community investment
Direct infrastructure support for healthcare, boreholes, and schools in Matobo District.
By investing in beneficiation at the source, we build enduring industrial capacity at home while delivering world-class stone to the Gulf.— Matobo HoldCo Operations Desk
Why specify
Put a sample on the table before the drawing is locked.
Architects, developers and stone contractors specify this range against a physical face — not a catalogue render. Request a sample set, then a quote against the programme.
Finished before it leaves Zimbabwe
Blocks are cut, graded and finished in Bulawayo. The Gulf receives architectural granite — not a raw-block trade.
ASG-1 is the highest grade
One selection system from quarry face to slab. Datasheets and physical samples are issued against a nominated colorway.
One accountable Gulf desk
DUBAI STONE GATE DMCC holds, inspects and supplies. Specification, sampling and delivery sit with the same corridor.
Specification
Put a sample on the table
Call, WhatsApp or send the programme. Physical sample sets and technical datasheets go to architects, developers and stone contractors specifying Gulf work — before the drawing is locked.
