Glacier FarmMedia—Parrish & Heimbecker, Limited (P&H) is expanding its grain handling capabilities in Eastern Canada with the acquisition of a deep-water bulk marine export terminal from Societe En Commandite Terminal Grains in Quebec City.
The terminal had been operated by Sollio Agriculture since 2021.
Located in a key eastern shipping corridor and at the Port of Quebec, the terminal is a highly efficient facility that will play a critical role in enhancing P&H’s ability to serve its customers from coast to coast, the company said in a release.

The White House will not impose new guardrails on the farm industry’s use of pesticides as part of a strategy to address children’s health outcomes, according to a draft obtained by Reuters of a widely anticipated report from President Donald Trump’s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ commission.
P&H said in the release it has also established a new commercial relationship with Quebec-based terminal operator QSL International Ltd. QSL’s presence and expertise in the Port of Quebec “will support the continued success and integration of the terminal into P&H’s national supply chain,” P&H said.
“The addition of a Quebec City terminal is a strong fit for our long-term growth strategy,” John Heimbecker, P&H CEO said in the release. “It allows us to offer even more reliable and efficient service to our customers, while optimizing our logistics and supply chain capabilities across the country.”
P&H has been expanding its grain handling and milling operations in Eastern Canada in the last five years. In 2020, its milling division, P&H Milling, doubled capacity at its Hamilton facility and announced in early 2025 that it plans to further expand capacity with an additional mill and two storage silos. In August 2024, P&H announced the construction of a new marine bulk agricultural terminal at Picton Terminals.
