Coffee
Green coffee from origin to roasters and retail chains across Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific.
Moving what the world runs on.
Aurelia trades and ships coffee, oil, natural gas, rice and corn around the globe. We earn on the commodity and on the voyage: buy at origin, ship to destination, and capture the price move in between.
The firm
A merchant, not just a trader.
We originate and ship physical commodities to manufacturers, roasters and food groups that need dependable supply. Every cargo we commit to is a real delivery promise, not a paper position.
Our desk knows quality specifications, vessel windows and destination requirements — because we stand behind the shipment.
Alongside the physical book, we use futures and options to manage price exposure — for our own positions and for counterparties who need certainty across long transit periods.
We are not a fund and not a broker. We take possession, we move cargo, and we price risk.
“We take possession, we move cargo, and we price risk.”
The journey
Behind every cargo is somebody counting on it.
Origin
Grown, drilled or harvested, then bought and priced.
Loaded
Inspected, sealed and put on board.
At sea
Weeks on the water, where the price can move.
Delivered
Discharged on time at the buyer’s port.
In use
It ends up in a kitchen, a factory or a fuel tank.
What we handle
Six commodities, one careful hand.
Crude & refined oil
Cargo-level trading and hedging across Atlantic, Mediterranean and Asian routes.
Natural gas
Physical and derivative exposure across regional gas markets.
Rice
Bulk grain for food manufacturers and institutional buyers.
Corn
Feed and food-grade corn, with hedging linked to transit.
Sugar & cocoa
Selective origination and option structures on request.
How we trade
We price the gap between loading and discharge.
A cargo is loaded at origin at one price and arrives weeks later. In between, the market moves. Most of our edge comes from structuring trades around that window: locking in purchase economics at origin, then using futures and options to capture or protect against the change in transit.
We combine physical shipping knowledge with derivative execution — we know when a vessel will arrive, what the destination basis is likely to be, and how to structure a position without unhedged directional risk.
Origin
Cargo loaded and priced at the point of purchase.
Transit
The window in which the market moves against the cargo.
Discharge
Position closed against destination pricing, or delivered on.
Counterparties
Supply into the brands that feed the world.
Our physical desk is built for large food and beverage operators. We understand the quality specifications, delivery windows and risk expectations of buyers like:

Counterparty-grade execution
The documentation, specifications and delivery discipline large buyers expect.
