It owns a 50,000t silo, the largest loading/unloading capacity for cereals at the Danube river. A.D.

Trade is performed in the area of agro-complex (export/import, local trade), trade in maize, wheat, crushed oilseed, fodder components, artificial fertilisers.

A.D Granexport was founded in 1952 upon a decision of the Government of Serbia, due to a need to supply the state with cereals in the year of huge shortage and drought. The company became an important partner to goods reserves of the state in providing strategic food products, and later on, with the construction of the silo, in their storing. This was followed by the construction of a flour mill in Pančevo, a storing facility in Port of the Danube River in Belgrade, and FSH in Požega, thus completing the overall production and trading activities of the company. In the former SFRY, the company distributed agricultural products through all Adriatic ports, where the average volume reached between 500,000 and 600,000t annually.
