Partnerships that make a real impact
Turco & Co
International UCO trading house
International trade in used cooking oil (UCO) plays an important role in supplying the biodiesel and renewable fuels industries. This feedstock, obtained from the collection of edible oils after use, is exchanged between collectors, suppliers, traders and industrial buyers across many regions of the world.
International trade in used cooking oils
Based in the United Arab Emirates, Turco & Co is a trading house specialised in the purchase and resale of used cooking oils internationally. We buy UCO from suppliers and market it to professional buyers, including refineries, biofuel producers and other trading companies. Our activity rests on knowledge of the markets, careful selection of commercial opportunities and particular attention to product quality, contractual terms and the organisation of transactions.
A trading activity founded on buying and reselling
Unlike a matching platform, Turco & Co takes part directly in commercial operations. We negotiate purchase terms with our suppliers and resale terms with our clients, taking into account product characteristics, available volumes, destination and market conditions. Each transaction is examined individually. Delivery arrangements, payment terms, required documents and any inspections are defined according to the parties' requirements and the nature of the operation. Our model does not require ownership of storage facilities. Goods may be shipped directly from the supplier's installations to the destination agreed with the buyer, in line with contractual provisions. This organisation allows us to focus on our core business: international UCO trading.
Supply adapted to buyers' needs
Companies that buy UCO look above all for a feedstock that matches their industrial needs and supply requirements. Quality is a decisive criterion. Depending on applications and processing methods, buyers may set limits on free fatty acid (FFA) content, moisture, impurities or iodine value. These points are set out in our specifications. Volumes, regularity of deliveries, origin of the goods and traceability documents also form part of how an offer is assessed. Turco & Co reviews these parameters in order to propose commercial terms suited to the requests received. Our aim is to build realistic operations based on clearly defined specifications and precise contractual commitments. Buyers can send us their requirements, indicating in particular the volume sought, the expected characteristics, the country of destination and the desired delivery terms.
International outlets for UCO suppliers
The growth of renewable fuel value chains creates commercial opportunities for companies specialised in the collection, treatment and marketing of used cooking oils. For a supplier, access to international markets requires more than the availability of a volume. Professional buyers generally ask for precise information on product origin, characteristics, marketable quantities and available documents. Turco & Co reviews offers from suppliers wishing to sell their UCO on international markets. We analyse the characteristics of the lots offered, available volumes, commercial terms and shipping possibilities in order to assess their fit with market demand. Suppliers can present their offers by stating the country of origin, available quantity, analysis results and envisaged sales terms.
Quality, traceability and documentary requirements
International UCO trade rests on quality and traceability requirements that can vary according to the country of destination, the intended industrial use and the obligations applicable to the buyer. Certificates of analysis help document the physico-chemical characteristics of the goods. Depending on the operation, independent inspections may also be arranged to verify quality or quantity. Traceability is another important issue, particularly when UCO is destined for biofuel value chains subject to sustainability requirements. Schemes such as ISCC EU and European regulatory frameworks may impose specific documentary obligations on the operators concerned. These points are covered in more detail on our traceability page. Turco & Co takes into account the requirements applicable to each transaction and, where necessary, coordinates verification and documentary exchanges with the parties involved. The aim is to have coherent information on origin, characteristics and commercial terms of the goods before shipment.
Logistics in international UCO trade
Transport of used cooking oils requires organisation suited to volumes, product characteristics and destination. Depending on the operation, UCO may be carried in containers fitted with flexitanks, tank containers or other equipment compatible with transport requirements. The choice of logistics solution depends in particular on quantities, available infrastructure, regulatory constraints and the commercial terms agreed. Incoterms such as FOB, CIF or FCA define the respective responsibilities of seller and buyer regarding delivery, costs and risks. Details of delivery bases appear on our logistics page. In the course of its transactions, Turco & Co coordinates logistics arrangements with the relevant service providers, taking into account contractual terms and the documents needed for shipment.
A trading house based in the United Arab Emirates
The United Arab Emirates occupy an important position in international trade, thanks to their logistics infrastructure and connections with Asian, African and European markets. This base gives Turco & Co a favourable setting for developing its international trading activities. The identity of the house is presented on the About page. Our specialisation in used cooking oils allows us to focus our commercial approach on the needs of buyers and suppliers of this feedstock. We favour clear professional exchanges, rigorous assessment of opportunities and commercial terms adapted to each transaction.
