Seed or oil, crude or refined: we are your counterparty here
We import soybeans, sunflower seed and crude or refined sunflower and soybean oil into Egypt, so an exporter who sells any of them keeps the same counterparty here. We hold the import licensing and run the clearance ourselves, and we attend inspection and weighing at the discharge port with the appointed surveyors. We do not crush the seed and we do not refine the oil: we clear the cargo and place it with the buyers who do, serving private and public sector buyers. Payment is secured through confirmed letters of credit.
Whole raw soybeans, high in oil and protein, for the local crushers, who extract the oil and the digestible protein meal the feed industry runs on.
High-oil sunflower seed for the crushers, plus large-caliber confectionery varieties for roasting, bakery use and snack packing.
Bulk crude sunflower oil, low in free fatty acids and moisture, for the refineries to refine, bleach, deodorize and package.
Refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) sunflower oil, clear and ready for consumer bottling, food service and wholesale distribution.
Bulk crude soybean oil, degummed, for the local refineries and industrial food preparation.
Refined soybean oil, neutral in odor, for consumer bottling, commercial frying, food service and food manufacturing.
Egypt imports most of the vegetable oil it consumes, and the feed industry runs on protein meal crushed from imported soybeans.
Seed or oil, we clear it ourselves: customs, GOEIC import control, agricultural quarantine and NFSA food-safety documentation.
Seed goes to the crushers, crude oil to the refiners, refined oil to the packers. We say upfront which model your cargo is on.
Whichever form ships, the terms do not change: documentary, with the credit that secures them confirmed.
