Founded by a trader.
Built for buyers.
Pieter Defoor
Commo18 was founded in 2025 by Pieter Defoor, a former senior member of the marketing desk at a leading multinational, with roughly fifteen years managing cereal, oilseed and sugar flows into North Africa and the Middle East — with particular depth in state tender markets.
Headquartered in Antwerp, a historic European hub for grain and commodity trade, Commo18 operates on three principles: discretion, expertise, performance.
“A good purchase is not the cheapest one — it is the one that arrives on time, on spec, and on the right side of the market.”
