Our History
We are a family owned business founded in 1953 by Octaviano Palomo del Pozo, dedicated to the marketing of cereals and agricultural raw materials in an increasingly dynamic and demanding global market.
We provide knowledge and technology to improve the quality and performance of the farmers with whom we collaborate.
Our ISO 22000:2018 quality and ISCC sustainability management systems, storage, seed selection and logistics, together with our knowledge of international markets, allow us to meet our goal of generating value for customers and suppliers.
Our Facilities
Octaviano Palomo has six work centres, including the headquartes in Segovia. Its facilities are equipped with the latest technology for the storage and distribution of raw materials.
The Silo de Pancorbo in Burgos is one of the most modern centres in the north of España. Built in 1977, we have converted it into an state of the arts grain storage center: fully automated, remodeled and digitized. This facility is not only a storage and distribution point for grains, but it is also designed to offer farmers in the North of Burgos, Rioja and the Basque Country integrated agronomic consulting services, with the aim of optimizing yields in the field, as well as the search for optimal solutions for the prevention and eradication of threats to the harvest, the selection of seeds, etc.
The Cuellar and Abades centres are reference centres for farmers in the provinces of Segovia and Valladolid. Together with our experimental and test fields, the centres have storage capacity and offer agronomic services. In the region of La Moraña, in Ávila, we have our facilities in Arévalo and San Cristóbal de la Vega, which in addition to drying and storage capacity, offer advisory services to farmers.
