Refined and Crude Sunflower Oil – CIF Offers
Sunflower oil for distributors, food manufacturers and refiners. We handle enquiries for refined sunflower oil (food grade, for retail and industry) and crude sunflower oil (for refining). As a refined sunflower oil supplier channel, we pass your requirement to the producer side for a CIF offer. Crude sunflower oil export and refined oil are offered from Argentina and Turkey, with Russia and Kazakhstan on request. Sunflower oil in bulk flexitanks or PET bottles is possible. Vanguard Trade Capital Goods Wholesalers DWC-LLC (Dubai South, Licence 14282) acts as sales mandate on the producer side: we take your enquiry, confirm the specification, port and volume with the producer, and pass on the producer's full corporate offer. We are a consultant and sales mandate, not the producer.
