Grain Merchants & Shippers (Wholesale) is an industry that involves the buying, selling, and transportation of grains and field beans in large quantities. These companies act as intermediaries between farmers and food manufacturers, providing a vital link in the food supply chain. Grain merchants and shippers purchase crops from farmers and sell them to food manufacturers, exporters, and other buyers. They also arrange for the transportation of these crops, either by truck, rail, or ship. This industry is highly competitive and requires a deep understanding of the agricultural market, as well as strong relationships with farmers and buyers.
