As the largest grain marketing business in the UK, Grainfarmers
plc holds preferred supplier status with the majority of the
UK's flour millers, feed compounders, maltsters, oilseed crushers,
pet-food manufactures and industrial end-users. Grainfarmers
is committed to the provision of a high level of service and
market access for our farmer members and the members of our
associated Central Stores.
We have direct access to EU and world markets through our export
facilities and ports around the UK.
There is an integrated market strategy within all Central Stores.
This achieves better scale to market grain, improves market
returns and reduces farmer to farmer competition.
Central store members have the choice of harvest pools, long
pool or direct sale marketing options backed by fixed payment
dates to give certainty of cash flow. Advance payment schemes
are available at very advantageous interest rates. Bad debt
cover is also provided.
Central storage gives growers the option to grow commodities
and alternate crops not suited to existing on-farm facilities. |
