SINGAPORE - Davis Commodities Limited (NASDAQ:DTCK), currently valued at $23.5 million in market capitalization, announced a $30 million strategic plan to integrate blockchain technology and digital assets into its operations, according to a press release issued Friday. According to InvestingPro data, the company has shown significant volatility, with the stock recording an 18% gain in the past week despite challenging fundamentals.
The Singapore-based agricultural commodities trading company, which generated revenue of $132.37 million in the last twelve months but faces profitability challenges with weak gross margins of 1.76%, plans to allocate up to 50% of the funds to develop a blockchain-powered platform that will tokenize agricultural commodities such as sugar, rice, and edible oils. The platform aims to enable smart contract-based settlement, on-chain supply chain tracking, and cross-border efficiency.

"The platform will facilitate near-instant cross-border settlements, addressing time and cost inefficiencies in traditional trade finance," the company stated in its announcement.
Davis Commodities cited a Boston Consulting Group report projecting the global real-world asset tokenization market to exceed $16 trillion by 2030.
The company expects the combined digital treasury strategy and tokenization platform to generate revenue growth within 24 months of launch, though specific financial projections were not disclosed.

The announcement represents the company’s first major initiative to incorporate blockchain technology into its core business operations.
