CTRM for Sugar - Managing Sugar’s Complexity

A ComTechAdvisory Whitepaper

AGIBLOCKS – A TRUE SUGAR SOLUTION
Agiboo’s AGIBLOCKS CTRM solution, like many others, is a multi company, multi-commodity software application.
It is a complete “out of the box” solution, available on premise and in the cloud. Built on modern technology, it
provides functionality for trading physical commodities and their terminal market instruments. It supports contract
management, logistics fulfillment, forex and hedging, and it has tools for real-time risk analysis and risk management. It supports both trading management and financial management from the same source of data and within
the same application. Its modular structure allows users to implement an end–to-end solution or to select individual functions to implement only the functions that are needed.

While AGIBLOCKS is a strong contender across many commodities, including Coffee, Cocoa, Grains, Oilseeds, and Dairy,
it is extremely strong in terms of meeting the specific requirements of the sugar markets. This is evidenced by the number
of reputable customers that have implemented and are using
AGIBLOCKS, to support their day-to-day sugar trading and/or
merchandising businesses.
Wim Depla at Hottlet Sugar Trading, pointed to this issue specifically saying, “Finding a suitable commodity trade and risk
management solution for sugar is not that easy as might look

on the surface. There are only few software solution providers
specialized in sugar trade. Sugar has its specifics which all need
to be incorporated in one single approach. Missing a crucial functionality would make a solution unusable. The People at AGIBOO
immediately understood our requirements and needs, because of
their specialization in sugar trade solutions.”

AGIBLOCKS provides all of the specific and generic functionalities discussed above that are relevant to sugar and probably
should be on any shortlist of CTRM software for companies
involved in sugar markets that have a CTRM software need.
