Grains highlights
The Grains Platform is one of our oldest businesses in China.
We market corn, wheat, barley, sorghum and Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles from the global origins to major domestic end-users.
We originate wheat and corn from the country’s north-east and North China Plain, and have started merchandizing those products to consumers based in Southern China.
We maintain strategic ties with local warehouses, logistic partners and ports in major producing and consuming regions.
Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC) is one of the first few international merchandizing houses with domestic presence in the Chinese grains market. We are also the first multinational company to attain membership at both the Dalian and Zhengzhou Commodity Exchanges.
Due to the Group’s global presence, we have market leverage and regularly provide price indications from the global origins to major Chinese importers. In recent years we have become one of the top grain suppliers to domestic users.
We are growing our business with a flexible business model that leverages on our experience in the futures market and resources in the cash trading sector.
We implement prudent risk control measures from origination and storage to distribution and cost management, so as to secure consistent supply of corn and wheat to our customers. We are active members of both the Dalian and Zhengzhou Commodity Exchanges, and apply the experience we have gained from cash business and our analyzing expertise.
