Grains

LDC Mexico specializes in the merchandising of grains such as wheat, corn, sorghum and DDGS. We also participate in the local wheat and corn crops as a commercial partner and exporter.

Our strong worldwide presence and reputation for reliability makes us as an optimal business partner in the Mexican grain industry. We have an extensive international network of offices, distribution centers, transportation and storage facilities.

We are able to offer customized logistics solutions for every customer, providing thoroughly planned delivery programs from the grains point of origin to their final destination.

Oilseeds

LDC is a top three supplier of soybeans and canola oils to the Mexican market. We supply the domestic market with almost a million metric tons of soybeans annually, mainly sourced from the United States and South America. This represents more than 26% of Mexico’s total demand. We are also a leading supplier of different vegetable oils to Mexico, which we source from a diverse asset base.

Our oilseeds business is closely integrated with complementary logistics, crop inputs and processing businesses. The products we import are either used in the oilseed industry, or are transformed into meals and oils for local market distribution.

Committed to Sustainability

In addition to our strong merchandizing capabilities, growing product portfolio and reputation for reliability and integrity, our leading position in grains and oilseeds is also connected with our commitment to responsible sourcing, traceable supply chains and sustainable business practices globally.

Increasing traceability in our soy operations is central to our sustainability efforts, to encourage responsible land use and non-conversion of native vegetation for soy cultivation.
