Gleadell Agriculture is the UK’s leading exporting company to destinations within the EU and worldwide. Access to international markets is facilitated by our shareholders and Gleadell are able to load vessels up to 30,000t through our modern dedicated export facility at the port of Immingham. Smaller ships (up to 6,000t capacity) are loaded in Grimsby, Kings Lynn, Boston and Lowestoft. Of equal importance to the success of the company is domestic trade.

Long term trading relationships with domestic consumers ensures access to all markets within the UK.

Grain Marketing

Recent years have shown increased volatility in world commodity markets and Gleadell believe this will continue. Gleadell offer farmers a variety of totally transparent marketing schemes to assist farmers in managing their price risk in the years ahead. These include: buyback contracts for malting barley, milling wheat, oats, pulses and industrial oilseed rape; Gleadell Protect (the first three-year minimum-maximum price, feed wheat contract); Guaranteed Minimum Price contracts (GMP), Option contracts, “Cash and Carry” contracts and the Gleadell Grain Pool.

Whole Farm Marketing

The model for Whole Farm Marketing has developed from a number of large farms wanting to work in partnership with Gleadell to maximise gross output while concentrating their efforts more into production.

The number of farmers using Whole Farm Marketing has increased as more see the benefit of working in partnership with the UK's largest independant grain merchant.

One of the main benefits is that all contracts come from one merchant and all movements, payments, samples and farmers store positions can be monitored on Gleadell Xtra.
