CBH maintains export market share
CBH Group continued to be WA's dominant grain exporter in 2020-21 with 55 per cent market share, but production from the state fell below the level of New South Wales.
Viterra began as a Canadian grain handling business with its historic roots in grain-handling cooperatives.
In 2009, Viterra bought South Australia-based ABB Grain. In 2012, global commodity trader Glencore acquired Viterra and changed its name to Glencore Agriculture. In 2020, Glencore Agriculture rebranded to Viterra.
Viterra is one of the largest buyers of Australian commodities nationally. It originates, stores, handles, transports and markets a range of agriculture commodities including grains, oilseeds, pulses and cotton.
Viterra's Western Australian grain handling operations are exported from South Australia.
