ADM expands grain terminal in Canada

ADM Agri-Industries completed an expansion of its grain terminal at Port Windsor, Ontario, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, increasing its export capacity and supporting agricultural production in southwestern Ontario.

The expansion includes new grain dryers; a new roadway and kiosk system to load soybean and canola meal; additional meal space at the ADM crush plant; and new silos and conveyance to efficiently load export meal and grain, ADM said in its Sept. 4 announcement.

The project will increase export capacity to markets in Europe, the United States and Latin America for agricultural production from southwestern Ontario farmers in Essex, Kent, Lambton, Middlesex and Elgin counties. According to the port, the terminal handles soybeans, canola and corn.

In partnership with Transport Canada, and through financial support from the National Trade Corridors Fund, ADM Agri-Industries began work on the expansion in early 2024. The National Trade Corridors Fund supported the expansion through an investment of up to $26.3 million that was announced at the outset of the $76 million project.

“This expansion offers multiple beneficial effects on the local economy, including increasing demand for locally grown products, supporting and growing the regional transportation industry, and contributing to increased use of marine logistics,” said Kevin Wright, general manager, ADM Great Lakes Region. “We want to thank Transport Canada and the National Trade Corridors Fund for their support of this expansion project and their investment in Windsor, Ontario.”

ADM is the largest grain handling company in North America as listed in Sosland Publishing Co.’s 2025 Grain & Milling Annual. ADM operates 355 grain storage facilities with 434.34 million bushels of licensed capacity.
