Commodities
Without the commodities trade, the world would not function as we know it today. Each nation would exclusively consume only what they were able to produce domestically and would not benefit from what others can produce easily. We are fortunate to have involvement with many commodities across the four sectors outlined below and consider this to be the most imporant and largest contributory area of our business.
Petrochemicals
The volatile hydrocarbons that power our world have an immensely wide range of uses and applications that go beyond fuelling cars, trains and planes. This is the Globe's largest industry and directly or indirectly affects all other markets. To be involved in this market requires an up to date understanding of Geo-politics and International legislative actions.
Metals
Non-precious metals are a key driver of the construction industry. 1.6 Billion tonnes of steel alone were produced in 2013, and this figure grows annually. Vital activities such as the galvanisation of steel are made possible by the supporting supply of other metals such as zinc, which is also traded and produced in many different locations globally.
Agriculture
The best opportunities in the agricultural sector occur where there is an unanticipated surplus of a resource that if unsold, incurs warehousing costs that are unwarranted and undesirable for a supplier. Procur International receive many opportunities of this nature and devote a large portion of time to marketing such opportunities to qualified end-users. Speculation is no substitute for physically trading in such goods.
FMCG
Fast Moving Consumer Goods are supplied predominantly by Asian producers and this is region where we maintain our strongest network of contacts. The products we don't trade in ourselves can be sourced and delivered on an entirely bespoke basis if necessary. If you are a supermarket or National distributor we will undoubtably be an invaluable asset to your operation.
