Business Lines

Grains are an indispensable source of food in many developing nations, and play an important role in diets around the world, providing vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, oils and protein.

We source grain products – including wheat, corn, sorghum and barley – from all major producing areas. Through our ever-growing network of processing, storage and distribution facilities, we bring these products – as well as derivative products such as dried distillers grains and corn-based ethanol – to key consumer regions such as Africa, the Middle East and Asia.

We also originate, process, store and merchandize a wide range of oilseeds – including soy, canola, sunflower, palm, cotton, peanut, camelina, cottonseeds, peanuts – and their derivatives, for global food, feed, energy and other industries.

Meal from oilseeds is predominantly used as a protein ingredient in animal feeds. Soybean meal is the world’s largest source of meal protein, accounting for more than 80% of the total according to the United States Department of Agriculture.

Vegetable oils can be used to create biodiesel and other derivative products for industrial, specialty chemical, personal care, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.

In Paraguay, we merchandize oilseeds, grains, seeds and fertilizers & inputs.

We have an extensive interior logistics network and a significant presence in Paraguay’s main ports on both major rivers – the Paraguay and Paraná. Combining this with extensive knowledge of both local and global markets, and a presence in key global destinations, has helped us to become one of the country’s leading exporters of grains, oilseeds and their by-products.

Oilseeds – relying on our network of warehouses, crushing plants and ports, we purchase soybeans directly from producers and deliver these either to ports for export, or to crushing facilities for processing into soybean meal and oils.

Grains – we purchase quality corn and wheat from local producers and distribute these efficiently to customers in the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and Asia, relying on our extensive logistics network – in the country and globally.
