AFRICAN ORIGINS (Circa A.D. 800)

Goats will eat anything. Just ask Kaldi the legendary Ethiopia goatherd. Kaldi, the story goes, noticed his herd dancing from one coffee shrub to another, grazing on the cherry-red berries containing the beans. He copped a few himself and was soon frolicking with his flock. Witnessing Kaldi’s goatly gambol, a monk plucked berries for his brothers. That night they were uncannily alert to divine inspiration. History tells us other Africans of the same era fueled up on protein-rich coffee-and-animal-fat balls—primitive PowerBars—and unwound with wine made from coffee-berry pulp. Coffee later crossed the Red Sea to Arabia, where things really got cooking...

ESCAPE FROM ARABIA (Circa 1000 to 1600)

Coffee as we know it kicked off in Arabia, where roasted beans were first brewed around A.D. 1000. By the 13th century Muslims were drinking coffee religiously. The “bean broth” drove dervishes into orbit, kept worshippers awake, and splashed over into secular life. And wherever Islam went, coffee went too: North Africa the eastern Mediterranean, and India Arabia made export beans infertile by parching or boiling, and it is said that no coffee seed sprouted outside Africa or Arabia until the 1600s—until Baba Budan. As tradition has it, this Indian pilgrim-cum-smuggler left Mecca with fertile seeds strapped to his belly. Baba’s beans bore fruit and initiated an agricultural expansion that would soon reach Europe’s colonies...

EUROPE CATCHES THE BUZZ (1615 to 1700)

“The Turks have a drink of black color....I will bring some with me...to the Italians” Thus a merchant of Venice introduced Europe to coffee in 1615. But the end product didn’t amount to a hill of beans to many traders—they wanted the means of production. The race was on. The Dutch cleared the initial hurdle in 1616, spiriting a coffee plant into Europe for the first time. Then in 1696 they founded the first European-owned coffee estate, on colonial Java, now part of Indonesia Business boomed and the Dutch sprinted ahead to adjacent islands. Confident beyond caution, Amsterdam began bestowing coffee trees on aristocrats around Europe...

A SWASHBUCKLING SCHEME

(Circa 1714 to 1720)

Louis XIV received his Dutch treat around 1714—

a coffee tree for Paris’s Royal Botanical Garden, the Jardin des Plantes. Several years later a young naval officer,

Gabriel Mathieu de Clieu, was in Paris on leave from

Martinique, a French colony in the Caribbean. Imagining Martinique as a French Java, he requested

clippings from his king’s tree. Permission denied.

Resolute, de Clieu led a moonlight raid of the Jardin des Plantes—over the wall, into the hothouse, out with a sprout.

Mission accomplished, de Clieu sailed for Martinique. He might have thought

the hard part was over. He would have been wrong...

REAL GOLD FACTS

CROSSING THE ATLANTIC (Circa 1720 to 1770)

On the return passage to Martinique, wrote de Clieu, a “basely jealous” passenger, “being unable to get this coffee plant away from me, tore off a branch.” Then came the pirates who nearly captured the ship; then came a storm which nearly sank it. Finally, skies grew clear. Too clear, Water grew scarce and was rationed. De Clieu gave half of his allotment to his stricken seedling. Under armed guard, the sprout grew strong in Martinique, yielding an extended family of approximately 18 million trees in 50 years or so. Its progeny

would supply Latin America, where a dangerous liaison would help bring coffee to the masses...

COFFEE BLOOMS IN BRAZIL (Circa 1727 to 1800)

1727: Brazil’s government wants a cut of the coffee market; but first, they need an agent to smuggle seeds from a coffee country. Enter Lt. Col. Francisco de Melo Palheta, the James Bond of Beans. Colonel Palheta is dispatched to French Guiana, ostensibly to mediate a border dispute. Eschewing the fortress like coffee farms, suave Palheta chooses a path of less resistance—the

governor’s wife. The plan pays off. At a state farewell dinner she presents him a sly token of affection: a bouquet spiked with seedlings. From these scant shoots sprout the world’s greatest coffee empire. By 1800 Brazil’s monster harvests would turn coffee from an elite indulgence to an everyday elixir, a drink for the people. So that’s the history of coffee, the Robert McAngus Group Buy’s Sells and drinks this wonderful elixir ……………… have you had yours today?

Most sugar is either consumed in the country where it is produced under government controlled pricing arrangements or moved from one country to another under long-term supply agreements. The sugar not subject to such agreements is freely traded among a number of nations, corporations and individuals. This makes the market for sugar a "residual" market - a market in which freely traded sugar is only a fraction of worldwide production. Since the free market may be only 20-25% of world production, a small change in production or consumption can translate to a much larger change in free market sugar supply. The delicate supply/demand balance is a main reason for sugar's high levels of historical price volatility.

In the United States, import tariffs have long supported the domestic sugar industry, with quotas typically holding U.S. prices steadily above those in the world market.

There are two main types of sugar grown in the world: cane and beet. The sugar supplied by RMG Commodities a division of The Robert McAngus Group Limited are cane type. Both produce the identical refined sugar product. Sugar cane is a bamboo-like grass grown in semi-topical regions and equatorial region where rain is plentiful and the strong direct sunlight nourished the cane. Cane sugar accounts for about 70% of world production. Beet sugar comes from the sugar beet plant, which grows in temperate climates and accounts for the balance of world production. In temperate weather, disease, insects, soil quality and cultivation affect both cane and beet production, as do trade agreements and price support programs. Brazil, India, China, Thailand, Cuba and Mexico are among the leading sugar cane producers. European Union nations, the Russian Federation and Ukraine produce the majority of all sugar beets. The European Union, Brazil, Thailand, Australia, Cuba and Ukraine are leading sugar exporters. Both cane and beet sugar are grown in regions of the U.S.; sugar beet production in the U.S. accounts for about 9% of the world total and cane production about 3% of the world supply. U.S. sugar cane is grown in Florida, Louisiana, Hawaii, Texas and Puerto Rico. Beet sugar is grown in 14 states, with Minnesota, Idaho, North Dakota and California leading production.

Industrialized nations account for most sugar consumption. The European Union, Russian Federation, United States, China and Japan are among the world’s largest sugar importers. Beyond price, other factors influencing sugar demand include: refinery activity; consumer income; candy and confectionery sales; changing eating habits; and sugars use in new technologies, such as ethanol production for automobile fuel. Many South American countries use sugar and corn based ethanol in their unleaded gasoline and diesel engines. For more information on Bio Diesel visit www.mcangus-group.com

The Robert McAngus Group deals with a wide variety of edible oils, but is primarily dedicated to the Olive oil, Sunflower oil, Palm oil, Coconut oil, Corn oil, Cottonseed oil, Canola oil, Peanut oil, Safflower oil, Sesame oil, Soybean oil, Avocado oil, Rape seed oil, Walnut oil industry.

The two leading edible oils in the world are Palm and Soya Oil. For most of the past half century, Soybean Oil has been the benchmark for edible oils. But with increasing substantial plantings all over the world and particularly in South East Asia, Palm Oil production has been steadily increasing and now exceeds that of soya. The margin becomes even more pronounced when palm kernel oil is taken into account. Palm Oil is today the leading edible oil produced in the world. The relative

growth in importance of palm oil has been relentless for decades. Rape is the next most popular edible oil after palm and soy, followed by sunflower, cottonseed, groundnut, palm kernel and coconut oils.

Rice has fed more people over a longer period of time than any other crop. As far back as 2500 B.C. rice has been documented in the history books as a source of food and for tradition as well. Beginning in China and the surrounding areas, its cultivation spread throughout Sri Lanka, and India. It was then passed onto Greece and areas of the Mediterranean. Rice spread throughout Southern Europe and to some of North Africa. From Europe rice was brought to the New World. From Portugal it was brought into Brazil and from Spain to Central and South America.

Rice could be taken too many parts of the world due to its versatility. It is able to grow in the desert conditions of Saudi Arabia, in the wetland deltas of Southeast Asia in the flooded rice plains which we are most familiar with.

The Robert McAngus Group deals with all types of rice that are grown in bulk globally and can offer competitive pricing and delivery

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock normally occurring in rock strata in layers or veins called coal beds or coal seams. The harder forms, such as anthracite coal, can be regarded as metamorphic rock because of later exposure to elevated temperature and pressure. Coal is composed primarily of carbon along with variable quantities of other elements,

chiefly hydrogen, with smaller quantities of sulfur, oxygen and nitrogen

HMS is 'Heavy Melting Scrap'. It is the generic term for most types of heavy steel scrap, normally cut to a size not exceeding 1.5m x 0.5m. It consists of cut lengths of pipe, re-bar, angles, steel poles, H or I beams, ships plate and so on. HMS 1 is the term for heavier scrap which has a density of at least 0.7 tons per cubic meter, whereas HMS 2 would be lighter steel scrap such as thin wall tubing (eg bicycle frames), sheet scrap less than 3.2mm thick and so on. The two are normally sold together with a ratio of 80/20 heavy and light, and so this would be the typical product being referred to when scrap dealers and traders talk about 'HMS'. HMS is the description used worldwide, with Americans trading a similar type of scrap called ISRI grade 201. 201 is shorter (1m x 0.5m) and should be at least 6mm thick, making it a slightly superior grade to HMS.

The Robert McAngus Group buys and sells HMS 'Heavy Melting Scrap' contact us for the latest prices and availability.

Considered to be the most common type of cement in use today, Portland cement is utilized for all sorts of building projects. The cement is used as an ingredient in materials used for sidewalks, buildings and as a binder between other substances, such as stone or brick. The basic formula for Portland cement appears to have originated in the late 18th century and was first identified by that name in the early 19th century. The name for the dry cement product is derived from the similarity of the finished product to Portland stone. This type of building product was quarried in England in the early 19th century. Using methods that were somewhat like the procedure

for making Roman cement, Joseph Aspdin was awarded a patent in 1822 for creating the cement. The original formula called for the use of cement clinker, and a small amount of other ingredients. The stability of the product made the cement ideal for use in the creation of mortar and other binding materials.

Portland Cement (ASTM Types)

ASTM C 150 defines Portland cement as "hydraulic cement (cement that not only hardens by reacting with water but also forms a water-resistant product) produced by pulverizing clinkers consisting essentially of hydraulic calcium silicates, usually containing one or more of the forms of calcium sulfate as an inter ground addition." Clinkers are nodules (diameters, 0.2-1.0 inch [5-25 mm]) of a sintered material that is produced when a raw mixture of predetermined composition is heated to high temperature. The low cost and widespread availability of the limestone, shale’s, and other naturally occurring materials make Portland cement one of the lowest-cost materials widely used over the last century throughout the world
