Gleadell is one of the UK’s leading malting barley trading companies, internationally respected, with a wealth of malting history. Established over 120 years ago Gleadell was in fact a maltster, owning a maltings in Kirton in Lindsey in Lincolnshire. As a maltster back in the 1880's Gleadell was respected for its innovative ideas. This innovation has carried on to the present day.
The latter part of the 20th century saw the company grow its reputation for buying and supplying quality malting barley and was trading around 13,000t per annum by 1997. 1998 saw the company start to export malting barley in volume, working alongside its shareholder A.C Toepfer - the world's leading malting barley trader.
In the last few years our ex-farm purchasing has grown significantly due to our involvement in partnership arrangements with breeders, maltsters and brewers, enabling us to secure growing contracts for our farmer customers.
Today the company is purchasing in excess of 150,000t per annum and is one of the leading UK malting barley traders, trading both domestically and internationally.
We continue to build on our already strong and long lasting relationships with our maltster/brewer customers. Maintaining a positive relationship with our consumers enables us to provide the grower with a wide variety of markets and destinations into which we can market their grain. We aim to provide our customers, both grower and consumer, with a swift and efficient service and take care to place our quality malting barley into the most appropriate end destination.
We also work very closely with our suppliers and customers and offer a variety of pre-harvest buyback contracts, through innovative ideas we are continually bringing new marketing solutions to the market, allowing our farmer growers the confidence to budget well into the future.
