History and Formation of Bunge Limited
Johann Bunge founded Bunge Limited in 1818 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, launching its activities in grain trading.
During its early years, the company faced challenges stemming from competition and volatility in agricultural commodity prices, establishing a solid trading network and gradually expanding its operations beyond Europe.
Its expansion into South America marked a period of significant growth, especially in Brazil and Argentina, where the company became one of the leading players in the agro-industrial value chain.
The diversification of its product line—including the production of oils and flours—strengthened its position in the sector and enabled it to meet rising global demand.
A major milestone in Bunge’s trajectory was its initial public offering (IPO) in 2001, when it became a publicly traded company. This move increased its visibility in financial markets and facilitated strategic investments in innovation, infrastructure, and geographic expansion.
Between 2020 and 2024, Bunge intensified its initiatives focused on sustainability and technological innovation, responding to global trends shaping the agribusiness industry.
The company also underwent changes in its shareholder structure, with rising participation from investors focused on responsible investing practices.
The merger with Viterra, announced in 2023, stands out as one of the most significant recent developments, consolidating Bunge as one of the largest global companies in grain processing and merchandising.
