Core Craft

If the product you’re looking for isn’t listed below, please get in touch, we have partnerships with leading refineries and top scaled supplier relationships.

Our Core Value Proposition

In a global market defined by volatility, Pardelta offers stability through dual-channel expertise:

  • Physical Mastery: We possess deep-rooted partnerships with leading refineries, mines, and agricultural producers. This allows us to guarantee the specification and delivery of high-grade commodities from Base Metals and Soya to complex Petrochemicals and Distillates.
  • Financial Insight: We utilise advanced derivative instruments (Futures, Swaps, Options) not just for speculation, but to lock in margins and offer competitive, fixed pricing to our clients. We absorb the market risk so our partners can focus on their core operations.

Strategic Market Focus

Our trading desk is organised into three primary verticals, ensuring specialised attention to the unique drivers of each market:

  1. Energy & Petrochemicals: A robust portfolio ranging from crude oil and middle distillates (ULSD, Jet Fuel) to niche chemical feedstocks and oil field chemicals.
  2. Metals & Minerals: Secure sourcing of LME-grade base metals (Copper, Zinc, Aluminum) and precious bullion, serving both industrial manufacturers and institutional investors.
  3. Agricultural Softs: A dedicated focus on the “Big Three”—Soya, Palm, and Cocoa—leveraging strong relationships in West Africa and Southeast Asia to ensure food security and consistent supply.
