More than What Meets the Eye
Backed by a credit rating higher than 98 percent of rated energy companies, Koch Supply & Trading companies are indirect subsidiaries of Koch Industries, Inc., one of the largest private companies in North America, according to Forbes magazine.
Koch companies have a presence in almost 60 countries and employ about 70,000 individuals in diverse businesses around the world. Koch companies have completed more than $32 billion in acquisitions and investments since 2003. Since 1960, the value of the Standard & Poor's 500 grew about 72-fold, assuming the reinvestment of dividends. During that same period, the value of Koch Industries grew more than 2,300-fold, using the same assumptions.
Koch companies work behind the scenes to provide fuels, fertilizers, raw materials, beef and trading services. They are also responsible for well-known products that include STAINMASTER® carpet, LYCRA® fiber, Quilted Northern® tissue and Dixie® cups.
Koch Supply & Trading’s success story has roots in crude oil trading activities by other Koch companies in the 1960s. Today, the company's trading business includes a broad range of valuable resources such as base and precious metals, gas, power and emissions, natural gas and gas liquids, petrochemicals (aromatics and olefins), refined petroleum products such as gasoline and gasoline components, distillates, naphthas, intermediate feedstocks, fuel oil, crude oil, and freight.
