Copenhagen Merchants Group works across trade, freight, logistics, market intelligence, plant proteins and battery energy storage — all built around market understanding, practical execution and long-term commercial judgement.

What we do

How the group works

Copenhagen Merchants Group works across agri-commodity brokerage, dry bulk shipping, terminals & logistics, market intelligence, plant proteins and battery energy storage. Each area has its own focus, but they are connected by the same commercial logic: understanding markets, acting close to physical flows, using data intelligently and building long-term value through ownership, relationships and execution.

Together, these businesses connect insight, access, movement and infrastructure — helping clients and partners move from opportunity to execution.

Explore our 6 business areas

Agri-commodity brokerage

Market access built on insight and relationships.

Copenhagen Merchants connects buyers and sellers across agricultural commodity markets, including grains, corn, soybean meal and related agri-commodity flows. Since 1977, our brokerage business has grown through regional market knowledge, long-standing relationships and practical execution.

Dry bulk shipping

Freight close to cargo, timing and trade.

Through Navi Merchants, Copenhagen Merchants Group supports dry bulk freight and chartering across agricultural and bulk commodity flows. We connect cargo, vessel availability, timing and routes — making freight part of the commercial solution.

Terminals & logistics

The physical platform behind commodity flow.

Across our Northern European terminal network, we support storage, handling and logistics for structural flows of agriproducts. From loading and discharge to warehousing, bagging, drying and own labs, we help keep physical trade moving.

Market intelligence / CM Navigator

Sharper decisions need better signals.

CM Navigator brings supply, demand, price and freight data closer to daily trading decisions. Built from inside the commodity trade, the platform helps commodity professionals see market movement with more clarity.

Plant proteins / Aarhus Protein

Turning pulses into future food and feed ingredients.

Through Aarhus Protein, Copenhagen Merchants Group processes faba beans into plant-based ingredients for feed, pet food, food and nutrition — connecting agricultural raw materials with future ingredient demand.

Battery energy storage / CM Batteries

Flexible capacity for a changing power system.

Through CM Batteries, Copenhagen Merchants Group develops and owns battery energy storage systems that support grid stability and energy-market flexibility — building assets where infrastructure, timing and project execution matter.

How it all connects

A value chain looks neat on paper. Trade does not.

Real markets are inconvenient. Cargoes move late. Freight changes. Counterparties hesitate. Weather, politics, storage, price and timing rarely behave because someone made a tidy model.

Copenhagen Merchants Group has grown around the practical work behind trade: finding counterparties, reading markets, moving cargo, handling goods, using data and building businesses where we see long-term commercial logic.

The connection between our businesses is not a theory. It is how we stay close to the things that decide whether an opportunity becomes a result.

Doesn’t fit neatly into one box? Good.

The most interesting opportunities rarely do. If what you have in mind sits somewhere between markets, assets, cargo, data or timing, start the conversation with us.
