What we do

End-to-end trade execution.

Mandara operates at the intersection of logistics, compliance and market finance. Five disciplines, one accountable desk — from origination to delivery.

The disciplines

Five services,
one flow.

Each discipline can stand alone — but they are built to run together, so a single mandate covers the entire life of a cargo.

01

Market Monitoring

Intelligence

24/7 surveillance of global biofuel benchmarks — tracking price movements, regulatory shifts and emerging arbitrage across the Asia–EU corridor.

  • Benchmark tracking across UCOME, FAME, HVO, SAF and feedstocks
  • Regulatory watch on RED II/III, mandates and Annex IX updates
  • Arbitrage and freight-spread signals between origins and ARA
  • Desk views shared directly with active counterparties
02

Physical Brokerage

Execution

End-to-end management of physical delivery — cross-border logistics coordination, vessel management and supply-chain tracking under one mandate.

  • Vessel nomination and chartering coordination
  • Port, terminal and surveyor coordination at both ends
  • Documentation: B/L, certificates of origin, PoS handling
  • Live cargo tracking from loading to discharge
03

Compliance & Certification

The green license

Expert guidance on ISCC EU, RED II/III and country mandates — bridging the compliance gap between Asian supply and European demand.

  • ISCC EU mass-balance and chain-of-custody management
  • Proof of Sustainability (PoS) issuance and verification
  • Annex IX classification and documentation support
  • Audit preparation and certification-scheme guidance for suppliers
04

Risk Management

Structuring

Structured hedging approaches and risk-mitigation solutions that insulate counterparties from price volatility across the life of a contract.

  • Structured pricing: fixed, floating and index-linked formulas
  • Hedging strategy against relevant paper benchmarks
  • Exposure analysis across freight, flat price and certification value
  • Contract structuring for term and spot business
05

Counterparty Matching

Network

Connecting a vetted, global network of reliable buyers with highly compliant suppliers — and standing behind the match.

  • KYC and vetting on both sides of every introduction
  • Long-term offtake matching, not one-off introductions
  • Quality and quantity assurance baked into the match
  • Ongoing relationship management through the contract term

Who we serve

Both sides
of the bridge.

We sit at the centre of the corridor — which means we owe discipline to both ends of it.

Sellers — India & Asia

Producers & aggregators

Feedstock collectors, esterification plants and producers seeking reliable, certified access to European demand.

  • Route to ISCC-certified European offtake
  • Guidance through certification and audit readiness
  • Predictable, ratable offtake instead of spot uncertainty
  • Transparent settlement and trade finance structures

Buyers — EU & Global

Obligated parties & traders

Refiners, blenders, majors and trading houses placing compliant volume against RED II/III obligations.

  • Verified, traceable supply aggregated at origin
  • Full PoS and mass-balance documentation per cargo
  • Independent Q&Q inspection at loading and discharge
  • One desk accountable for schedule and specification
