Our extensive global sourcing network of growers, ginners and suppliers is supported by our own offices, warehouses and gins.
We’re the largest private ginner worldwide with extensive operations in Australia and USA. We use world-class ginning systems to produce superior and consistent quality cotton.
Our integrated ginning and contract farming operations in Africa means we are on the ground to help farmers improve their practices and get a fair price.
Our customers benefit from our broad operations, with a traceable, sustainable source of quality cotton. Because of this, we are chosen by textile mills in all major markets.
Globally Sourced Cotton
Americas
In the USA, we’re a leading supplier of all cotton varieties. Our business is diversified across the major growing regions of Texas, Memphis, Georgia, California and Arizona, with ginning and warehousing infrastructure in several locations.
In Brazil, we’re a leading exporter and have developed long-standing relationships with growers, providing them with innovative financial and risk management solutions.
Asia
We’re the leading supplier of medium and extra-long staple cotton from Central Asia. We transport cotton from the region’s land-locked countries to major markets worldwide.
In India, we’ve used our long-term presence in other agricultural products to set up infrastructure across the country’s major growing regions.
With over a decade of supplying imported and domestic cotton, we’re now a major participant in the regional trade flow and have a strong franchise with domestic spinning mills.
Australia
Through our subsidiary Queensland Cotton, we’ve built strong relationships with growers in Australia for whom we provide marketing, ginning, classing, warehousing, logistics and seed marketing. We’re recognised as an industry leader, a trusted supplier of premium quality cotton and a preferred partner for many of the major textile mills worldwide.
Africa
We run extensive ginning operations in Côte d’Ivoire, Togo, Chad, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe and have nurtured long-standing relationships as the preferred partner to various cotton marketing boards and ginners.
Through our integrated ginning model in Côte d’Ivoire, Togo and Chad, we support farmers to improve crop yields and quality, provide seeds, training services, access to agri-inputs and social investment, which in turn improves livelihoods. We do this in close partnership with development agencies including IDH, USAID and BMF.
Smallholder farmers are the foundation of the global agriculture and food sector. It’s estimated that they produce around 30% of total crop production, making them critical to global food security.
