What it does
Methanex produces and sells methanol and ammonia to chemical and petrochemical customers across Asia Pacific, North America, Europe and South America, and it owns or leases the storage and terminal facilities that move these products to buyers. It is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, and operates as one of the larger dedicated methanol producers globally.
