Gabriele Dadò, Chief Executive Officer of BLK
BLK Global PLC secures listing on Euronext Access Dublin, with trading set to begin at 8.00am on 31 July 2026 under the ticker code BLKX. The Glasgow-based company runs www.blkcommodities.com, a technology-driven marketplace where businesses can source, buy and sell physical raw materials and commodities.
What does BLK do?
Founded in Glasgow in 2018 by shipping and technology executives Gabriele Dadò and Aleksandra Dadò, BLK runs an online marketplace where businesses around the world can buy and sell raw materials and commodities, spanning agricultural products, chemicals, energy, construction materials, industrial goods and metals.
The platform cuts out brokers and middlemen, connecting buyers directly with producers. This means businesses pay a fairer price for goods and can manage purchases more efficiently. BLK also handles the physical shipping and delivery of goods bought through the platform, making it an end-to-end solution for commodity buyers and sellers. The company operates from its Glasgow headquarters, with additional offices in Mumbai and Dubai.
Strong growth
BLK has grown quickly in recent years. Revenues rose from £5.5 million in 2024 to £20.7 million in 2025, and the company turned a profit at the operating level in the same year. More than $15 billion worth of commodity stock is currently listed on its platform. Trading in the current financial year is said to be in line with expectations, with full year results due in October 2026.
Why list now?
BLK sees the public listing as a way to build trust and awareness with customers globally, and to position itself to raise further investment as growth opportunities arise. The company is targeting annual revenue growth of over 40% and aims to become a leading name in digital commodities trading by 2030, with around 40% of revenues expected to come from the marketplace platform itself rather than shipping.
Gabriele Dadò, Chief Executive Officer of BLK, said:
“We are excited to become a public company at a pivotal moment for BLK and for the digitalisation of global commodity trade. The Euronext Access market in Dublin provides an ideal stepping stone for BLK to execute the next phase of our growth, leveraging our standing as a public company to build our profile, grow a qualified audience of customers and partners as well as enhancing the Company’s access to public and competitive capital markets, as future growth opportunities arise. This will enable us to deliver on our mission of providing transparency and access to SMEs with direct, peer-to-peer access to producers and sellers of commodities, reducing reliance on brokers and intermediaries, streamlining the procurement process and making the whole supply chain more efficient for the benefit of local economies at both ends of the chain.”
