TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - PT Bumi Banua Sinergi in partnership with Visitama Teknologi Indonesia launched an e-commerce platform dedicated in the trade of mining products dubbed as the VMining.

This type of platform enables consumers to save costs where they would otherwise conduct coal surveys, view the mining location via the internet, up to numerous coal delivery alternatives that can be adjusted to a buyer’s budgeting allocation.

VMining claims the products sold in its e-commerce are those of the highest quality in accordance with GAR (gross as received).

“The coals we offer originate from Sumatra and Kalimantan which are equipped with official certificates that allow them to be traded,” said Arijanto, PT Bumi Banua Sinergi president-director on Tuesday, August 13.

Meanwhile, PT Bumi Banua Sinergi reasons that this type of coal trade is meant to reach not only the national scale but also the international market.

“In this digital era, we often witness many layers in the transactions within the coal industry. It’s difficult for buyers to meet the sellers. This technology acts as a mediator which has safe transaction security,” said Reza Putra, PT Visatama Teknologi Indonesia President-Director.

As of consumers’ privacy and data security, VMining guarantees that its platform - available in either Play Store and App Store - is safe for both, traders and buyers.
