Our services

Customers always need consistently high-quality products, delivered at cost-effective pricing. This enables them to plan better, and retain more of what they work for. It’s not complicated, but requires the right mix of resources, expertise, and commitment to excellence, which is our #1 export.

Trading

At Kontex we focus on the physical spot/contract markets or “cash markets” where people and companies buy and sell physical commodities for immediate delivery.

Commodity trading predates that of the financial securities market many centuries. Trading commodities goes back to the dawn of humanity, as loosely affiliated communities would barter and trade with one another for food, supplies, and other items.

The rise of empires across the ancient civilizations can be directly linked to their ability to create complex trading systems and facilitate the exchange of commodities across vast territories via major trade routes.

Today, commodities are still exchanged throughout the world—and on a massive scale. Trading has also become more sophisticated with the advent of the financial securities market. exchanges regulate and standardize commodity trading, allowing for liquid and efficient markets. However, the gold standard of the commodities market is the “cash market” as it deals with the direct physical commodities.

Consulting

Even for experienced buyers, understanding the nuances of how and when to buy needed products is not a matter of routine. Growers, producers, suppliers and logistics providers are always changing—and not always by choice.

Weather, soil conditions, labor practices and requirements feed into product pricing, where quality and availability meet. How does a buyer safely plan ahead in a sea of constant change?

These and other inherent risks are mitigated through an investment in resource stability and redundancy. At Kontext, we incorporate a persistent focus on growing our resource relationships of every type. This isn’t just about a plan B—but more about duplicating the quality and deliverability of resources we already have, so that we can always meet our customer’s needs, affordably. thus providing a wealth information which facilitates our commodity consulting services.
