Richardson International handles grain globally and turns crops like canola and oats into food ingredients. It started in Kingston, Ontario as a grain trader and expanded west with a network of grain elevators, later creating Pioneer Grain Company in 1913. In 2013 it bought large portions of Viterra’s assets, enabling vertical integration across elevators, mills, and port terminals. Its goal is to provide end-to-end grain handling and processing on a global scale, moving crops from farm to shelf.
