NJORD
Sourcing, financing and delivering the materials the world runs on.
An independent commodity house in energy, metals, agriculture and industrial materials — with our own logistics company and a banking syndicate behind the book.
What we trade
Logistics & Finance
We own the part most of our market outsources.
Our own logistics company, with contracted capacity on MSC, CMA CGM, Maersk, COSCO and Evergreen — delivered terms quoted against capacity we hold.
How cargo moves
Metals & Minerals
Assay you can test. Provenance you can evidence.
Precious, base and battery metals, iron ore and steel — into smelters, mills and fabricators with independent inspection as standard.
Metals & Minerals
Agriculture & Fertilisers
Food, feed and the nutrients that grow them.
Grains, oilseeds and softs on GAFTA terms, and a full nitrogen, phosphate, potash and complex fertiliser slate.
Agriculture & Fertilisers
Sustainability
Certified where it can be certified. Honest where it cannot.
Co-processed gasoline, diesel and Jet A-1 under KZR INiG and RED — with Proof of Sustainability, mass balance and GHG value on every cargo.
Our frameworkWhat we trade
Six divisions, one counterparty.
The flows share vessels, terminals, financing structures and the same compliance discipline. Breadth makes each individual cargo easier to execute — not harder.
Oil & Petroleum
Crude and condensate, the refined barrel, marine fuels to ISO 8217, bitumen, base oils, naphtha and residual feedstocks.
Explore
Gas & Power
LPG, pipeline natural gas, LNG cargoes and methanol into utilities, petrochemical plants and industrial offtakers.
Explore
Metals & Minerals
Precious metals, base and battery metals, ferrous raw material and finished steel, and industrial minerals.
Explore
Agriculture & Fertilisers
Grains, oilseeds and softs, edible oils and dairy, and a full nitrogen, phosphate and potash fertiliser slate.
Explore
Chemicals
Mining chemicals, mineral acids, industrial salts and gases — bulk, isotainer and packed, with full transport classification.
Explore
Industrial Materials
INNOBETON 21® rolled concrete, H20 formwork girders, structural timber, kraft paper and packaging, machinery.
ExploreHow we work
A commodity house earns its place in eight ways.
None of them is knowing a price. Each is a form of optionality we hold so our counterparties do not have to.
Geography
Moving material from where it is surplus to where it is short — the oldest arbitrage there is, and still the largest.
Time
Holding cargo through a seasonal or structural spread, so a buyer can take delivery when they need it rather than when it was produced.
Form
Blending, splitting and reprocessing to convert an off-specification or off-market stream into something a plant can actually accept.
Logistics
Vessels, isotainers, heated transport and inland haulage — arranged as one scope of work rather than a chain of separate bookings.
Storage
Tank and terminal positions that let a cargo wait, break bulk, or be delivered into a receiving schedule the producer could not have met.
Finance
Standing between a producer who needs to be paid at load and a buyer who cannot pay until discharge, and carrying that gap on our balance sheet.
Risk
Absorbing price, quality, freight and credit exposure under contract, so the counterparty holds a delivery obligation instead of a market position.
Compliance
Screening origin, counterparty and end use before we quote. Where an origin cannot be cleared, we decline it rather than structure around it.
Logistics & finance
We own the part most of our market outsources.
NJORD operates its own logistics company. That is unusual at our size, and it is the reason we quote delivered terms with confidence rather than caveats.
We hold contracted capacity with MSC, CMA CGM, Maersk, COSCO and Evergreen — the five largest container lines in the world — alongside bulk, tanker and breakbulk relationships. Freight is not something we go and find after a cargo is agreed; it is something we already have.
On the financing side, we work with a banking syndicate that understands physical commodity risk. Documentary and standby instruments, avalised drafts and structured facilities are arranged as part of the trade, not bolted on afterwards.
Contracted carrier lines
- MSC
- CMA CGM
- Maersk
- COSCO
- Evergreen
Contracted capacity on the five largest container lines in the world, alongside bulk, tanker and breakbulk relationships. Named as counterparties to our logistics company — not as partners, endorsers or agents.
Sustainability
Certified where it can be certified. Honest where it cannot.
We supply co-processed gasoline, diesel and Jet A-1 as separate certified components under KZR INiG and RED — pool-compatible with EN 228, EN 590 and ASTM D1655, and documented to a standard that satisfies a compliance auditor.
Each certified consignment carries a Proof of Sustainability, the biogenic share, a GHG value, the mass balance allocation and a Certificate of Quality. For a buyer under a blending mandate, that is a commercial alternative to procuring FAME, HVO or SAF as a separate physical product.
The majority of what we move is fossil. Saying otherwise would not survive contact with a serious counterparty, so we do not.
