Marshall Produce Brokers Company Private Limited was founded by Sam Marshall in 1959 to handle the International business for the export of agricultural commodities and the import of edible oils to and from India, which resulted in gaining the distinction of being number one brokers in India since then. 

Marshall Produce branch at New Delhi, recognized as one of the top three tanker brokers, are actively involved in fixing tankers for Indian Government Charterers since 1976 and with its recognized team, respected worldwide, the fixtures are now exceeding 5 million tons every year both with Indian Government Oil Companies and with others in private sector, with its new desk at Singapore.

Countercorp International owes its existence to a company called Marpro London, which was established in 1965 as an extension of Marshall Produce India. Marpro subsequently became the world’s largest Broker of edible oils. with overseas offices which were the pioneers of agricultural resource development in countries such as Brazil, Argentina, United States, Germany, Switzerland, Myanmar, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Philippines, Hong Kong, Japan and Sri Lanka.

Marpro London, where Sam Marshall’s team was the premier world brokers in Edible Oils internationally, a “by-word” in Oils handled over 2 million tons a year from various origins to various destinations during which time Marpro Oils and Grains Sdn Bhd a fully owned company of Sam Marshall was incorporated in Malaysia in 1974 to undertake large scale broking operations in Malaysia in Palm oil and products which continues till date to be rated among the top 2/3 brokers in Malaysia.

Marpro maintained its headquarters in London from 1965 until 1986 and the Group started to switch priorities from West to East when the company was invited by the Singapore Government to promote Singapore as a hub of Barter and Countertrade activities. Sam Marshall then moved to Singapore and founded Marpro Singapore which later was named as Countercorp in 1986.  Countercorp stood amongst the first few to be granted Pioneer Status by the Government of Singapore as part of its drive to enhance Countertrade services in Asia Region and became the flag ship of the Group (in which with the blessings of Marshalls, Agrocorp International Pte Ltd, Singapore was sown, formed, nurtured and established).
 
As a result, Marpro London was disbanded and pieced out amongst the Senior Managers operating the South American and Japanese offices. Meanwhile emphasis was shifted fully to Asia, including India where Marshall Produce continued to maintain their offices in Mumbai, New Delhi since inception. Marshall’s offices continue operations to this day with associates all over South East Asia in countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka and China.
