About Us
The Growth of Frost International Limited |
The beginnings of the export house were laid down in a journey that two young entrepreneurs took from Kanpur in Central India to Moscow in Russia with an export consignment of tea leaves in 1984. This started a story of steady growth and expansion, both in terms of commodities and markets. In 1995, Metachem metamorphosed into Frost International Limited, a professionally managed company with the three promoters as directors. They continue to guide the functioning of the company to this day. As the business ideas expanded, so did the initial vision and mission of the company.
Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves,to break our own records, to outstrip our yesterday by our today
We are an emerging business house striving to break global barriers in trading in diverse commodities. We work with business partners in many countries. They have placed their complete trust in us. |
How we work |
Our dedicated and knowledgeable professionals constantly monitor the markets to identify and source goods so that we are able to deliver the best goods at reasonable prices
Once the markets are identified and analysed the execution team takes over. Our entire team is divided into departments which facilitate the commercial aspect of work which includes finance and accounts and banking procedures. The documentation department works in tandem with these departments.
The professionals in these departments in turn convert the project into field work which includes handling at domestic and international ports. Every commodity reaches its destination in time and with precision via these critical channels. |
In the commodities market, which is our play field, each trade is a long drawn process which requires smooth execution. The bulwark of our company is the Back Office which is responsible for carrying out the day to day functions in a manner to keep pace with ourverticals or trade lines. It is classified broadly into seven departments. Each of these departments is headed by experienced professionals. Without the full support of even one of these, our verticals or trade lines would become handicapped |

Accounting and Finance |
Proper accounting is critical for voluminous transactions in our company. This helps in consolidating the entire transactional data in any given time frame to ascertain the state of affairs of the company. This finally reveals the company s financial position, its strengths and its weaknesses in the areas of internal checks and controls, which are worked upon immediately. |

Banking |
The back bone of the Back Office is our Banking Department. It has a huge role to play as we do extensive volumes of business. The entire logistics is managed through a very strong multiple banking arrangement with nationalized and scheduled banks, who have carefully screened our financials to allocate both, fund and non fund based limits of about USD 125 Million. |

| Social Responsibility |
| The promoters of Frost have not been immersed in only procuring business. They understand the need to expand their core inner values too. Their accountability has resulted in supporting charities that are close to their hearts. Starting with the donations of sporting equipment to a deserving school in Mumbai, the company is pledging its support to the under privileged in the society. Our Lady’s Home, Mumbai has become the first recipient of the goodwill of Frost International Limited. Our assistance has helped the school procure sports equipments like jerseys, hockey sticks, footballs, shoes and coaching staff for its students. The company is in the midst of chalking its charitable calendar for the future as we realize the importance of giving it back to the society, which had aided us to be where we are today |
