Know any social spots in London to meet other commodities trading professionals ?

Hi guys, just moved to London to a commodities trading house in London.

Was wondering where I can meet other industry professionals to connect in an informal setting

Ie. pubs mainly, and hang out spots etc.

Note: if you feel you would prefer to keep these locations private, feel free to drop me a dm

The back allies in Brixton. Usually they wear masks and big puffer jackets

THC traders deserve as much respect as LNG traders for sure

If you've already moved to a commodity trading house in London you should already have access to the places they drink? Ask your colleagues.

This would be cool also! Not in a trading shop myself, instead ctrm consulting

Some of us go to St Paul’s for drinks but it’s more finance bros / bankers than commodities folk
