About Us

Founded in 1851, LDC is a global merchant and processor of agricultural goods, with a diversified portfolio covering the entire value chain, from origination to distribution. With activities at the heart of agricultural and food production, and guided by our strong values, rich heritage and clear vision, we are committed to working toward a safe and sustainable future.

The LDC Value Chain

We are evolving from our traditional role as an agricultural commodities merchant to master more of the food, feed, fiber and ingredients value chain. Through greater vertical integration within our business lines, we aim to secure a seamless, traceable and responsible supply chain from farmers to end-consumers.

We have expanded our business activities to every continent. Our interactive global map illustrates LDC’s extensive geographic footprint and asset network.

Agribusiness Anti-Corruption Collective Action

LDC is one of the founding companies of the Agribusiness Anti-Corruption Collective Action (in Portuguese), an initiative that works in favor of the industry’s commitment to the best practices for preventing and fighting corruption. As a result of this work, the Best Practice Guide on Anti-Corruption in Agribusiness was published, consolidating the fundamental ethical principles and guidelines for the industry to act with increasing integrity and transparency, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proposed by the UN.

The “Deep down you already know” campaign was also launched, with a series of videos aimed at indicating, in short episodes, the best way to act in everyday situations that may involve risks of corruption.
