BUNGE

Bunge Limited is a prominent global agribusiness and food ingredient company. Founded in 1818, it is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, and maintains operations in over 40 countries around the world.

In Malaysia, Bunge's operations are significant within the edible oils sector, with a strong emphasis on palm oil processing and specialty fats. Through its Bunge Loders Croklaan division, the company is a key player in refining crude palm oil and producing a wide range of value-added palm oil derivatives and specialty fat solutions for the food industry.

Regarding whether it is a factory or a trader, Bunge is both. The company operates manufacturing facilities, including palm oil refineries and processing plants in Malaysia, which classify it as a factory. These facilities transform raw agricultural commodities into finished and semi-finished food ingredients. Simultaneously, Bunge is one of the world's largest agricultural commodity traders, engaged in the global sourcing, trading, and distribution of grains, oilseeds, and processed products. Thus, in Malaysia, Bunge functions as both a manufacturer through its refining and processing operations and a trader of its refined products and other agricultural commodities.

BUNGE Malaysia manufactures and/or sells the following products:

* Edible oils (e.g., palm oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil)

* Specialty fats

* Animal feed ingredients

* Grains

* Oilseeds

* Fertilizers
