Bunge Global is one of the largest agricultural trading and processing companies in the world. It buys crops like soybeans, corn, wheat, and canola from farmers, then processes and sells them to food manufacturers, animal feed producers, and cooking oil brands. The company sits in the middle of the global food supply chain, connecting farms to factories across dozens of countries.

Bunge makes money by buying, storing, transporting, and processing these crops — earning a small margin on each step. It operates across North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, with especially strong roots in Brazil, one of the world's largest soybean exporters. The company's scale and its network of ports, storage facilities, and processing plants are its main competitive advantages, but those thin margins — around 2-5% — mean profits are very sensitive to crop prices, weather events, and global trade disruptions.
