HISTORY
Founded in 1999 and established in Geneva, Switzerland in 2002, as Capezzana Shipping & Trading S.A., Capezzana Commodities is a traditional commodities trading house that combines efficiency with imaginative approach.
Since then, the company has steadily grown its business activity and network and today is one of the largest suppliers and distributors of rice in Senegal, Gambia and Mali.
Capezzana continues to develop and expand its activity, on the basis of the solid commercial relations it has created over the years with its partners, suppliers and clients, built on a spirit of mutual trust and understanding.
Since 2014, Capezzana has added Morocco, India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Angola in its commerce markets, trading corn, soybean meal, wheat bran, barley and millet.
In 2021, Capezzana Shipping & Trading merged with Lake Commodities SA to create Capezzana Commodities expanding its activity further.
