Our Value Chain

A Controlled Process,
from Start to Finish

Below, we break down each stage of our ecosystem...

The Gem's Journey

Our ecosystem is made up of 7 key stages, from the alliance at the origin to final monetization. Each step is designed to maximize value and transparency, ensuring a solid, profitable process for those who are part of our joint businesses. In the following sections, we will explore each one in detail.

1. Origin: Direct Alliance

Our direct alliance with 1,200 leading mining families gives us access to the finest raw material, ensuring an ethical origin with no intermediaries for fair, efficient dealing.

2. Transformation: Lapidary Mastery

In our workshops, master artisans transform the rough stone into a valuable asset. Each cut is a strategic decision that seeks to reveal the greatest beauty and optimize the gem's potential — an art that combines science with decades of experience.
The ARE Standard

Global Guarantee, Precision Logistics

Once the gem has revealed its full potential, our process focuses on two fundamental pillars: the objective verification of its value and its secure transport to international markets.

3. International Certification

Every emerald undergoes rigorous analysis in independent gemological laboratories. The resulting certificate is not just a guarantee of authenticity and quality; it is the gem's international passport, establishing its value objectively and transparently.

4. Secure, Efficient Logistics

We manage a robust export process that complies with all international regulations. We handle the high-security logistics and customs procedures to position the assets in our European hubs safely and efficiently.

The Final Destination

From Asset to
Global Liquidity

The final step of our ecosystem is the strategic sale of the asset. Through our exclusive network and an agile monetization process, we turn the emerald's value into a tangible return for participants, completing the virtuous circle.

5. Strategic Sales

Our network of exclusive distributors and contacts in the European market gives us access to qualified buyers who value the quality and traceability of our assets. We don't just sell gems — we build long-term value relationships.

6. Agile, Secure Monetization

Once the sale is complete, we manage an efficient monetization process. We offer participants the flexibility to receive their returns in traditional currencies or crypto assets, ensuring fast, secure settlement of the operation.

7. The Virtuous Circle

The success of each cycle lets us reinvest in the origin. Ninety percent of our profits go to impact projects and to strengthening our mining alliances, ensuring the sustainability and growth of the entire ecosystem.

Efficiency and Transparency

Technology in Service of the Alliance

Frictionless Global Payments

We use blockchain technology to facilitate payments and settlements worldwide. This lets us operate with agility, reduce transaction costs and offer participants unprecedented financial flexibility.

Proactive, Constant Communication

Transparency is proven through action. We send participants detailed reports every 30 days on the status of their operation, from gem processing to the monetization of profits.
We are in a process of constant reinvestment in technology to optimize our value chain and improve real-time communication with all of our strategic partners.
Our Global Network

Building Bridges, Creating Opportunities

A Consolidated Network

We operate with a strong presence in key markets across the Americas and Europe, managing a constant flow of assets and strategic relationships that ensure the stability of our ecosystem.

Expansion to New Horizons

Our growth vision is directed toward opening new strategic markets in the Middle East and Asia, regions with growing demand for high-value assets with traceability and an ethical origin.
We are open to forging alliances with visionary participants who resonate with our purpose and want to be pioneers in introducing our business model to new territories. The opportunity for growth is shared.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a "Joint Business" in the ARE Trüst model?
It is a strategic partnership agreement (a joint venture) in which you participate with us across the emerald value chain. Depending on the partnership model, you may contribute capital to produce new lots or acquire assets from our inventory. In every case, ARE manages the operation from start to finish and the returns are shared transparently, exactly as agreed.
How is the authenticity and value of the emeralds guaranteed?
Every high-value emerald is certified by internationally renowned gemological laboratories. This independent certificate not only guarantees its authenticity and quality, it is the document that establishes its market value, providing an objective and secure basis for the entire operation.
How is my participation in a joint business backed?
Your participation is backed at all times by a physical, tangible asset: the emeralds themselves. Depending on the agreement, the assets may be held in your direct custody or stored in certified high-security vaults. The contract clearly sets out the guarantees and the protection of your capital.
Can I take part in a Joint Business if I live outside Colombia?
Yes. Our model is specifically designed for global participants. We handle all the logistical, legal, monetization and export complexity, allowing you to take part from anywhere in the world with complete security and the backing of an expert team on the ground.
