Grain
We buy, sell, process and distribute vital agricultural commodities, meeting global demand through assets spanning six continents.
As part of a global agri-business trading in 35 countries, we are well placed to service the needs of UK farmers and consumers.
Our nationwide coverage ensures that we can provide the quality, quantity and service that our domestic customers require. Additionally, we export more than 20% of the UK’s grain surplus, primarily to customers in Europe and North Africa.
Our global network of offices enables our traders to respond immediately to market drivers such as weather, crop ratings and planting intentions. This allows us to communicate key market information to farmers that assists them in making informed decisions on the marketing of their crops.
