Grains and oilseeds for millers, feed and food producers.

Milling wheat, feed wheat, corn, barley and soybeans from the Black Sea, Europe and the Americas for importers across the Middle East and Africa.

Overview

Feeding the world's fastest-growing regions.

The Middle East and Africa are among the world's largest grain importers, and their supply depends on a small number of exporting regions. Freight, policy and harvest conditions can shift prices quickly.

We connect importers with exporters in the main producing regions and structure cargoes with quality and phytosanitary inspection, fumigation and documentation suited to each destination.
