How We Operate
We conduct business under an integrated ESG Management Framework because we recognize the long-lasting impact our decisions have on people, communities, and the environment.
Corporate Governance
Governance Structure
Swift Petrotrade has adopted a one-tier model of Board of Directors. This model has only one body instead of two separate ones. The body consists of Executive Directors and Non-Executive Directors. The Executive Directors are in charge of the daily management, but are supported intensively by the Non-Executive Directors. The Board meets regularly to discuss and review reports on the business and the company’s strategies. Together, they bring a wide range of business, commercial and other relevant experience. The Board is confident that there is an appropriate representation of proficiency, capabilities, knowledge, independence and diversity of background amongst the members to carry out duties and responsibilities effectively.
Our Stakeholders
We work primarily with refineries owned by national oil companies, oil majors, independent oil refineries, airline companies, power generation plants, shipping companies and other bulk end-users. We focus on all members of the supply chain from the refineries to the end-users such as using best in class logistics whether it’s a ship, barge, pipeline or truck to move oil efficiently and effectively.

I have been doing business with the team at Star Front for a couple of years. We send an antifreeze type solution to China for various construction projects. To say that shipment dates, money transfers and confusion to quantities requires multiple changes before the project is actually shipped is an understatement.They takes every one of my changes with a positive attitude and a professional manner. Their flexibility and expertise in arranging my freight to get to its Chinese destination in a predictable and timely manner does what every manager hopes for. They make me look good.
