SINGAPORE -- Commodity trader Olam International said demand for agricultural products is picking up thanks to the economic recovery in China and other Asian markets, after the COVID-19 pandemic sapped demand and disrupted supply chains last year.
The Singapore-based company trades in a wide range of agricultural goods, including rice, cacao and nuts, and its supply chains span more than 60 countries. Over 80% of its revenue comes from the food category, but the company also handles industrial commodities such as cotton and rubber.
