TEQS Group

What TEQS Group does

TEQS Group is a private, founder-owned physical commodity trading company founded in 2021 that sources, transports, and delivers agricultural and energy commodities to industrial buyers worldwide. It is organized through TEQSGROUP PTE LTD (Singapore, primary entity) and TEQS GROUP USA INC (Campbell Hall, New York, wholly-owned subsidiary), with operational offices in both jurisdictions. The product portfolio spans two categories: agriculture commodities (sugar, soybeans, yellow corn — including certified Non-GMO and USDA Organic options) and energy commodities (gasoil/diesel, LPG, LNG). Sourcing is direct from farmers, agricultural cooperatives, Brazilian producers, and refineries, with quality inspection handled through a partnership with SGS and logistics handled via partnerships with large bulk shipping companies and, for energy, Very Large Gas Carriers.

The underlying technology is operational rather than software-driven: TEQS Group runs no SaaS platform, no API/SDK, and no app, relying instead on physical supply-chain orchestration, third-party inspection, and bulk-vessel logistics. Revenue is earned through transactional price differentials on bulk commodity sales (transaction-fee model) under quote-based, transaction-specific pricing. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales: every transaction is gated by formal documentation including a Letter of Intent, Irrevocable Corporate Purchase Order, Bank Comfort Letter, Proof of Funds, and Ready Willing and Able documentation, with payment via 100% LC/DLC at sight or Telegraphic Transfer with advance. Customer segments are horizontally diversified across food manufacturers, animal feed producers, power plants and utilities, refineries/industrial energy buyers, and soybean processors, served through direct B2B sales globally.

The business carries no disclosed institutional funding, no management team bios in the source data, no awards or patents, and no regulatory actions. Competitive positioning is built on direct producer relationships that bypass intermediaries, certified product lines for premium segments, and a dual-continent (Americas/Asia) operational footprint, with strategic alliances in place for top-tier LNG producers and leading refineries. The principal risk vectors are counterparty/credit exposure inherent in large-ticket LC/DLC transactions, dependence on third-party shipping and inspection partners, and exposure to commodity price volatility across both agricultural and energy markets.

Direct peers

• Mercuria Energy Trading: Privately held global commodity trader with a focus on energy (crude, refined products, LPG/LNG, biofuels) and growing agricultural exposure. Most comparable in scale, private ownership structure, and multi-commodity physical trading approach to TEQS.
• Gunvor Group: Independent global commodities trader with core books in crude oil, refined products, LPG, and LNG, plus selected agricultural flows. Similar in private ownership, geographic spread, and physical/spot-and-term energy trading model to TEQS.

Broad incumbents

• Louis Dreyfus Company: Global merchant and processor of agricultural commodities including sugar, soybeans, corn, and rice, with growing energy exposure. Comparable to TEQS's diversified agricultural book and B2B origination model, though at significantly larger scale and integrated further downstream.
• Cargill: The world's largest privately held agricultural commodity trader, originating, processing, and trading grains, oilseeds, sugar, and biofuels globally. Directly comparable to TEQS on the agricultural side but with vastly greater scale, owned logistics, and broader commodity coverage.
• Vitol: The world's largest independent energy trader, focused on crude, refined products, LPG, and LNG. Overlaps directly with TEQS's energy commodity book (gasoil, LPG, LNG) and physical B2B distribution model, though at an order-of-magnitude greater scale.
• COFCO International: Global agricultural commodity trader (grains, oilseeds, sugar, coffee, cotton) owned by China's COFCO, with strong origination in Brazil and other South American production regions. Comparable to TEQS on agricultural commodity mix and producer-side origination, though with far larger scale and state-affiliated backing.
• ADM (Archer Daniels Midland): Major publicly listed global agricultural processor and trader of corn, soybeans, and oilseeds. Directly comparable to TEQS on agricultural origination and trading, though with vastly larger processing footprint and downstream reach into food and feed.
• Trafigura: One of the largest independent commodity traders, with major books in crude oil, refined products, LPG/LNG, and metals. Closely comparable to TEQS on the energy side (gasoil, LPG, LNG), with a similar spot-and-term physical trading model but far deeper counterparty and logistics infrastructure.
• Wilmar International: Asia-leading agribusiness group trading and processing oilseeds (including soybeans), edible oils, sugar, and grains, with integrated refining and consumer brands. Comparable to TEQS on the oilseed/sugar trading side and Singapore-anchored Asian footprint, though with extensive downstream processing.
• Bunge: Global agribusiness and food company originating, processing, and trading soybeans, corn, and sugar. Overlaps with TEQS on the core agricultural commodity book and Brazil-centric origination model, with substantially greater processing and logistics infrastructure.
