Created by Trade, for Trade

DiMuto was created by fresh produce veterans with decades of experience in the perishables trade. While managing a global food supply chain and conducting international trade deals when running a global fruits and vegetables marketer and distributor, founder Gary Loh experienced many pain points and realized there was a need to change the way global food trade is being done.

With the aim of transforming the global trade landscape for the better, DiMuto was thus born.

Harnessing the power of data

Imagine a world where businesses have complete visibility over all aspects of their transactions – a world where decision-making is powered by data and visibility, leading to better, sustainable and ethical outcomes.

This is the world of Visible Trade.

DiMuto is a trade management solution providing visibility across all flows of money, goods and services, empowering business leaders with data and transparency for better decision making.

Demystifying global trade

At DiMuto, we believe that to change the world, we need to see the world – down to every single product, to every single service provided, to every single trade transaction. By capturing the data with IoT, AI and blockchain technology, we can demystify global trade, simplify operations for greater efficiency and establish win-win-win outcomes.
 
With Visible Trade, we power companies and the world forward with confidence.

Revolutionizing agrifood

DiMuto aims to transform the “Messy Middle” of global agrifood supply chains by allowing all agrifood stakeholders to share a single source of truth.

Visible Trade allows agrifood players to connect the dots together, so we can build a collaborative foundation for a better, sustainable global food system.

Our Global Trade Network

Our Global Trade Network is a collaborative nexus of farmers, packhouses, distributors and retailers working together to bring global consumers traceable, safe agrifood products.
