Our History

Sri Priyanka Geo Commex Limited (SPGCL) didn’t begin with factories or large infrastructure. Our journey began in 1990 with something far more important: learning the craft from the inside.

Instead of rushing into full-scale operations, we chose a deliberate path—working closely with existing refineries and utilizing idle capacities across the industry. Those early years were formative. They gave us hands-on exposure to oilseed extraction, taught us the realities of production efficiency, and helped us understand what it truly takes to achieve high yields and consistent quality. This foundation of operational intelligence shaped everything that followed.

By the mid-1990s, that deep understanding gave us the confidence to take the next step. In 1996, we transitioned from operators to manufacturers by establishing our first solvent extraction plant in Nellore, Andhra Pradesh. Owning the process meant owning responsibility—for quality, consistency, and performance. It was the beginning of a legacy built on control, precision, and trust.

Our commitment to vertical integration continued over the years, culminating in 2009 with the commissioning of our own physical refinery. This milestone allowed us to produce high-purity oils that met the most demanding industrial standards and reinforced our belief that excellence comes from controlling every critical stage of the value chain.

A defining transformation came in 2015, when SPGCL expanded beyond borders and entered the global mineral sector. By establishing strategic hubs in Singapore and Morocco, we evolved into a diversified multinational enterprise, positioning ourselves closer to global markets and supply networks.

Today, SPGCL stands as a trusted supplier to major multinational organizations across the USA and Europe. Our integrated value chain enables us to deliver essential food and energy commodities reliably and at scale. And as we look ahead, we are preparing for our next phase of growth—expanding capacity and securing copper and barite mines in Morocco to strengthen our presence at the forefront of global commodity markets.

From learning the fundamentals to shaping international supply chains, our journey has always been driven by one belief: sustainable growth is built on knowledge, discipline, and long-term vision.

Milestones

1990

Incorporated on April 30, 1990, the company initially specialized in solvent oil extraction from groundnut and sunflower oil cakes. Its early model focused on maximizing efficiency by performing job-work through underutilized capacity in existing solvent plants.

1995-96 

In August 1996, the company acquired 6.27 acres in Chandrashekarpuram, Nellore, to establish its own operations. By December 28, 1997, it launched a solvent extraction plant with a daily processing capacity of 60 metric tons.

2006-10

The company scaled its operations by increasing extraction capacity from 60 to 100 TPD and diversifying into rice bran processing. This expansion included the addition of a 50 TPD physical refinery, enabling the forward integration of crude rice bran oil production.

2010-11 

The company doubled its solvent extraction capacity, scaling from 100 to 200 TPD to meet growing production demands.

2014-15

Leveraging in-house R&D, the company modified its refinery to produce 99.5% high-purity rice bran (RB) fatty acid. This specialized capability positioned the plant as one of only two in India able to manufacture this grade, securing a significant price premium in the domestic market.

2015  

The company went global by establishing a 100% owned subsidiary in Singapore, Geo Min Commodities Pte Ltd, followed by a step-down subsidiary in Morocco, Atlas Resources International. This strategic move expanded operations into mining and mineral trading, primarily supplying raw materials and consumables to the Oil & Gas and Cement sectors.

2025

The company solidified its upstream presence by acquiring Barite and Copper mines in Morocco. This move secures a direct supply of critical minerals, fueling its global trading and industrial supply operations.
