Who We Are
Who We Are
From the beginning, our management team aimed at becoming a global metals and commodities trading company. Our culture is grounded in service, quality and efficiency. Thanks to a rigorous approach to risk management and compliance, Greenland America is now one of the largest exporters of non-ferrous scrap from North and South America.
Greenland’s strengths include its ability to move scrap globally in response to the changing marketplace. Those strengths are the result of the company’s relationships and the fact that we have a team out there that is extremely knowledgeable and well networked in established as well as emerging centers of scrap production and consumption, globally.
Our vision is to be a global player, both in terms of buying and selling, so we can provide maximum value and real-time market intelligence to our suppliers and buyers. In this ever-changing dynamic environment, you never know when government policies may suddenly change or when the next trade war will begin. Hence, it is very important to diversify and have your eyes and ears on the ground in the markets you want to do business in. This is truly what differentiates us.
Leadership - Inspiring others to engage with our vision
Innovation - Thinking outside the box to add value throughout the supply chain
Integrity - Committed to building long term relationships with our commercial partners
Strong Work Ethic – Possessing a desire to work hard and willingness to put in the extra effort to get the job done
Teamwork - Demonstrating commitment to one another as well as those with whom we conduct business
Our aim is to be an important driver of change into this new world where sustainability and business needs go hand-in-hand. Physical trading and logistics lie at the heart of our business and we play an integral role in moving scrap metal from places where they are plentiful to where they are needed the most – reliably, efficiently and responsibly.
Recycling metal conserves energy that would otherwise be expended in metal manufacturing processes. Different metals require different amounts of energy and resources to be produced but consider this: Recycling steel uses 60 percent less energy than deriving it from raw materials. Recycling aluminium saves 95 percent! That means, if you recycle your can of soda, you can help conserve enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for more than four hours!
Our mission is to help in creating a better world for tomorrow - one container at a time!
