Foodcom reviews – what is it like to work for an international trading company?

🔗 Marcelo: From local markets to global success

Marcelo joined Foodcom with experience gained in South America. Today, he works with clients from several continents and develops new sales directions.

“At Foodcom, I have an impact on what I do — and I see the results. I work with people from different cultures, learn something new every day, and at the same time, I can share my own experience. It’s an environment that energizes me.” — Marcelo Cedeño, International Commodity Trader.

His story shows that skills acquired in one market can flourish in a new context – if they find the right place.

🔗 Akif: From junior trader to independent specialist

Akif started working at Foodcom as a junior trader. Thanks to mentoring and the openness of the team, he quickly began to build his own portfolio and conduct conversations with clients on an equal footing.

“From the very beginning, I knew I could do it. I had the support of a mentor, but at the same time I was encouraged to be independent. I quickly started developing contacts, conducting talks, and feeling that I was part of something bigger. It gives me enormous satisfaction.” – Akif Rustamov, Partner at Foodcom S.A.

Today, as a partner at Foodcom S.A., Akif actively supports the company’s development by sharing his experience and knowledge of the industry.

At Foodcom, we operate within transparent structures that support cooperation and quick decision-making. We work quickly and efficiently, based on dialogue, goals, and respect for time.
“If you have an idea, you implement it. If you need something, you ask. If you see an opportunity, you act. It’s a place where the team really supports initiative and helps you grow.” — Daniel Nowak, International Commodity Trader
Our work culture is based on partnership. Each of us has the space to make decisions, share knowledge, and influence the direction of our activities. The team is not a formal arrangement, but a group of people who know how to work together.

Development is not an add-on, it is something that happens every day. Through action, through cooperation, through new challenges.

We focus on people who want to develop – and we help them plan their development. Because we know that the success of a team is the sum of individual steps.

“From my first weeks on the job, I had contact with customers – gaining experience from the very beginning under the guidance of a pack leader is, in my opinion, the best school and at the same time allows you to develop your own methods, but under appropriate supervision. Thanks to this, I quickly found my place. Now I run projects on my own, close bigger and bigger contracts, and develop relationships – I just do what I like.” — Adam Carecci, Senior International Commodity Trader

At Foodcom, development means:

• onboarding and mentoring support,

• sales training,

• promotions based on performance and commitment,

• knowledge sharing and teamwork.

Foodcom is a place for people who:

• are motivated,

• want to learn and take action,

• are not afraid of new challenges,

• value flexibility, specificity, and meaningful responsibility.

“Every day brings something different. Customers, markets, conversations. For me, that’s the greatest value – constant movement and influence. I know why I’m doing this.” — Yana Kozlovskaya, Senior Sales Support Specialist

We are not looking for perfect candidates. We are looking for people who want to develop, think independently, and can work in a team. Such people stay with us for a long time.

Our employees’ opinions show that Foodcom is an environment where initiative, openness, and continuous development are valued. For some, it’s the first step in an international career, for others, it’s a space where their experience can flourish.

If you’re looking for a place where your work matters and the team really works together, check out our offers. Maybe this is your new direction?
