Our presence in Argentina

Louis Dreyfus Company Argentina commenced operations in 1897. In 2005 we increased our presence in the country’s main cropping areas to enhance the origination of soybean for the crushing plants we own in Santa Fe and to be closer to our farmers.

Country elevators and commercial offices

In 2007 we built the first fully owned country elevator in Sarah, La Pampa province, and in the following two years we opened four commercial offices in the country’s interior. In 2008 we built another warehouse in America, Buenos Aires, and in 2011 two more – one in General Levalle in Cordoba province, and the other one in Campo Largo in Chaco province. At the same time we continued to expand our presence across the country, opening commercial offices and renting warehouses in Buenos Aires, Cordoba, Santa Fe, Santiago del Estero, Chaco and Entre Rios provinces.
