About Us

For over 100 years FDL were solely commodity traders with a huge portfolio of products, and suppliers on every continent of the world. Over the last 10 years we have embraced the changing markets and have looked to evolve as a company in order to compete in today’s competitive industries. FDL has made major changes over the years including the acquisition of several new sites throughout the world, which enables faster deliveries to our global customers.

We no longer consider ourselves as solely traders, but see ourselves as solutions providers within development and innovation to the food, beverage and industrial industries. FDL no longer just supply you with the ingredients you need, but also aid you in the development and manufacturing of a totally new product supporting you every step of the process via your own dedicated account & support FDL manager.

Because of our long established history in trading, we are well positioned to source top quality ingredients at reasonable prices, meaning no item is out of our reach. Cut out the middle man and hassle of dealing with several companies, and come to us as your one man stop. Get your ingredients, technical guidance, ideas and product from us – all under one roof at competitive prices!
