Richardson completes acquisition of Viterra grain facilities

        
 

Canadian grain handler Viterra has completed the transfer of certain grain businesses to Richardson International, as part of Glencore's takeover of Viterra.

Richardson said it had acquired 19 country elevators and 13 crop input centres co-located with those elevators formerly owned and operated by Viterra. These facilities will complement the Richardson Pioneer network of grain handling and crop input facilities across Western Canada.
