ION Commodities will participate in the Australian Grains Industry Conference 2026 (AGIC), the leading annual event for the grain and agricultural trading sector in Australia and across the Asia Pacific region. Organized by Grain Trade Australia, the conference brings together grain traders, exporters, producers, processors, and logistics providers to discuss market outlooks, supply chain challenges, and industry trends.
ION will attend as an exhibitor, engaging with agricultural trading firms and industry stakeholders to discuss technology strategies that support efficient grain trading, logistics coordination, and risk management.
 

Event overview 

AGIC provides a platform for the grain industry to examine the commercial and operational challenges shaping agricultural markets, including price volatility, supply chain disruption, climate-related risks, and evolving trade flows across the Asia Pacific region. As agricultural trading becomes more complex, firms are investing in technology that improves visibility across contracts, logistics, and financial exposure.
At the event, ION will showcase its commodity management solutions for agricultural trading, including Agtech, Openlink, TriplePoint, and Aspect, along with Softmar for freight and voyage management. These platforms support:

  • Physical grain trading and contract lifecycle management. 
  • Position and exposure tracking across agricultural markets.
  • Logistics coordination including storage, transport, and freight.
  • Risk management and hedge accounting.
  • Integration with finance, ERP, and market data systems. 

Together, these solutions help grain traders and agricultural businesses manage market volatility, improve operational efficiency, and gain real-time insight into trading performance across the supply chain.
