It origins, stores, and distributes grains and processes oilseeds into plant-based oils, fats, and proteins, offering refining and tailored solutions along the supply chain. Its advantage comes from its large, integrated network that spans grain origination, storage, distribution, oilseed processing, and refining across more than 50 countries. The goal is to strengthen global food security and sustainability by connecting farmers to consumers and providing essential food, feed, and fuel solutions.

  • Australia-to-Canada handling assets made Viterra strategically indispensable to Bunge in 2025.

Bunge-Viterra $8.2B Deal Faces China Hurdle

The $8.2 billion acquisition of Viterra by Bunge is stalled due to US-China trade tensions, with China yet to approve the deal. Bunge's CEO has made multiple trips to China for negotiations. The acquisition, announced in June 2023, aims to create a $25 billion agricultural giant. Bunge is in the final regulatory approval phase but has missed initial deadlines. If antitrust approvals fail, Bunge must pay Viterra a $400 million termination fee. The deal has been approved in Europe and Canada.
