MedSea Trading, along with its four sister companies, is a Middle East-based company with several offices worldwide, specializing in the trading of phosphate, salt, corn, and wheat, with a primary focus on phosphate. The company operates and manages phosphate mines in various countries, allowing direct control over extraction and supply. This vertical integration ensures a reliable and consistent supply chain, enabling the company to efficiently meet market demands. Additionally, MedSea Trading is actively involved in barter deals for phosphate, leveraging its strong network within the region.
Phosphate is at the heart of MedSea Trading’s operations, accounting for the bulk of its trading activities, with an annual volume of around one million tons. To meet its phosphate requirements, the company has taken over the management of two mining areas, securing the exploitation of approximately 650,000 tons of rock phosphate annually. Despite challenging extraction conditions, the company’s experienced team of engineers successfully removes rock and sand layers, reaching around 3 million tons of phosphate rock. This results in an annual production of 250,000 to 400,000 tons of concentrated rock phosphate, with quality ranging from 29.5% to 30.2% P2O5.
In mines where the company does not yet have full management control, MedSea Trading maintains its own team to oversee quality and ensure a steady supply. Furthermore, the company has teams at loading ports for final quality and quantity checks. Renowned international inspection companies such as SGS, GS, and TUV are appointed to guarantee the reliability of analyses, providing clients with security and trust.
Managing shipping operations in-house, MedSea Trading offers flexible logistics solutions and can quickly adapt to market changes. The company handles over 15 million tons of bulk cargo annually, utilizing sea vessels under management or affreightment contracts, as well as owning river barges to ensure timely delivery of goods to factories.
MedSea Trading operates across the Middle East and Europe, working directly with producers in the source countries and partnering with several factories in Europe, including two leading European fertilizer manufacturing groups. The company’s well-established network and strategic partnerships enable smooth logistics and trade processes. MedSea Trading’s strong relationships within the phosphate sector, particularly in the Middle East, support its barter trading activities and contribute to seamless operations.
Through well-organized operations and strategic planning, MedSea Trading ensures the highest standards across all aspects of its business, from mining to logistics. The company is dedicated to maintaining compliance with international quality and sustainability standards, providing reliable services to its clients.
