As Lara Trade Group we pride in the unique qualities of Lara core team in buyouts and mergers who continuously scans the horizon for new prospects both organically and through new micro acquisitions in existing lines of businesses. In 2020, we have successfully assessed and grabbed new business opportunities. Therefore, year 2020 earmarked for us a year of transition from a trading company to an industrial group through acquisition of mid-sized manufacturing companies who entered an ailing state due to prevailing economic conditions.

We partner with companies and management teams across industries and asset classes and combine our capabilities with our partners’ resources by forming trading partnerships with long-term off-take contracts.

At Lara Trade Group, our people are at the heart of the business. We are proud of having a working environment standing on high moral values and having a long-term view on seizing upon opportunities coming our way.
