The Necker Connection

In partnership with Necker ICE.

Border ICE works hand‑in‑hand with Necker ICE — the newest subsidiary of a multi‑generational cotton family that has been ginning, producing, and marketing cotton for nearly a century. Together we give growers a single, farmer‑first path from the field to the world’s largest textile buyers.

01 · Who Necker ICE Is

Nearly a century in cotton.

A cotton family through and through — owning and operating their own farms and gins, and marketing the crop for the better part of thirty years.

Producing

~100 years

A multi‑generational family in ginning, producing, and marketing — with wholly owned and operated farms and gins behind every bale.

Marketing

~30 years

Marketing the crop has been a backbone of the family for nearly three decades — working directly with the biggest buyers in the textile industry.

03 · Marketing Benefits for Growers

Marketing built around the farmer.

Three ways the partnership puts more of the crop’s value back in the grower’s hands.

01

Hedging

Access to futures and options markets to protect the crop’s value against the swings of the season.

02

Logistics & Handling

End‑to‑end logistics and handling — moving the crop from the gin to the buyer without the bottlenecks.

03

Open Marketplace

An open marketplace with no locked‑in pricing — the grower stays free to sell into the best of the market.

We put the farmer first — working together to get the best pricing for their crops, year in and year out.
