Glencore plc

Glencore plc is one of the world’s largest diversified natural resources companies, with operations across commodity trading, mining, processing, recycling, logistics, and marketing. The company produces and markets a wide range of metals, minerals, and energy products, including copper, cobalt, zinc, nickel, ferroalloys, coal, oil, gas, and other industrial commodities used by customers across automotive, steel, power generation, battery manufacturing, and energy markets.

Glencore’s strength comes from the combination of its physical commodity marketing business and its ownership of industrial assets. Its trading network gives it insight into global supply and demand, while its mining and processing assets provide exposure to key materials needed for infrastructure, electrification, energy security, and the transition to lower-carbon technologies. This makes Glencore one of the most important companies in global commodities, with relevance across both today’s energy system and future-facing metals markets.
