Strategic Commodities

Buying, Selling and Moving a Broad Physical Portfolio

Since our founding in Geneva in January 2017, Comet Trading S.A. has built a diversified portfolio of physical commodities spanning steel raw materials and finished products, cement and construction minerals, solid fuels, and, most recently, agricultural fertilizers.

Rooted in more than 30 years of cumulative commodity-trading experience, our team operates across all dimensions of the trade lifecycle: sourcing material from producers and mills, pricing and hedging exposure, arranging trade finance, coordinating logistics across major international routes, and delivering to industrial end-users and distributors on four continents.

Geneva, the world's foremost commodity-trading hub, gives us proximity to the financial instruments, legal frameworks and counterparty networks that physical trading demands. From that foundation we deploy commercial representatives in 14+ countries, ensuring local intelligence and relationship depth wherever our commodities flow.

  • Four distinct commodity verticals under one roof
  • Commercial presence across Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas
  • Trading hubs in Cairo, Shanghai, Dubai and London
  • Member of the International Iron Metallics Association (IIMA)
  • Independent, family-owned, free to act in our clients' interest

Physical Trading at Scale

We handle the full physical transaction, from initial offer and negotiation through to bill of lading and final settlement, giving counterparties a single, reliable point of contact across the cargo lifecycle.

Cross-Vertical Synergies

Operating across steel, cement, solid fuels and fertilizers, our teams share freight networks, finance relationships and market intelligence, delivering efficiency benefits that specialist single-commodity traders cannot replicate.

Independent & Conflict-Free

As a family-owned independent, Comet Trading has no equity ties to producers or end-users. That independence allows us to source the best-value material for each requirement without institutional bias.

ESG & Responsible Sourcing

Decarbonisation and supply-chain transparency are reshaping commodity markets. We engage with these themes through counterparty due diligence, documentation standards and a commitment to ethical, compliant trade practices.
