Strategy


The Global-TALKE philosophy, understood to be continuously evolving, provides it with the ability to offer the best responses at any time, and has allowed it to maintain the trust of all of its clients.

The evolution of Global-TALKE has always had present the same values and spirit of work that served its founders to start their project:

  • Being an approachable client that prioritizes personal treatment, and where, listening to the clients’ needs is the first step to finding the best solutions.
  • Knowing how to adapt to each client, understanding their special characteristics and priorities.
  • Offering trust and viable solutions at the best price and as quickly as possible.

The ability to be positioned as an important provider of logistics services in the chemical sector products graded as hazardous and non-hazardous, has led to Global-TALKE being considered by its clients as an extraordinary collaborator thanks to its ability to manage these products.

Its 2012 introduction into the animal feed sector, including the GMP+ certification, has led to extraordinary recognition among its clients.

Leveraging its experience in these sectors, Global-TALKE got started in processing food products for human consumption, thus making it possible to diversify and participate in various sectors that require similar services and that allow expanding Global-TALKE own know-how and being able to be even more competitive in the market.
