New Quebec terminal boosts P&H logistics
Parrish & Heimbecker, Limited (P&H) is working to strengthen Canada's grain transportation system by acquiring a deep-water marine export terminal in Quebec City. The facility was previously operated by Société en Commandite Terminal Grains and managed by Sollio Agriculture since 2021.
This newly acquired terminal is located at the Port of Quebec, one of the country’s most strategic eastern shipping corridors. It is expected to play a vital role in boosting P&H’s ability to move grain efficiently across Canada and to international markets. This move aligns with P&H’s commitment to supporting farmers, improving supply chain logistics, and ensuring dependable grain services nationwide.
With the acquisition, P&H has also formed a new commercial relationship with QSL International Ltd. QSL's extensive experience and presence in the Port of Quebec will aid in the successful integration and operation of the facility.
Importantly, the current team of experienced employees at the terminal will continue in their roles, ensuring a smooth transition and maintaining high service standards. P&H emphasizes its dedication to local communities and plans to meet all operational standards set by the Port of Quebec.
“The addition of a Quebec City terminal is a strong fit for our long-term growth strategy,” said John Heimbecker, CEO of P&H. “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.
This acquisition not only expands P&H’s national reach but also reinforces its status as a leader in the Canadian agribusiness sector. By strengthening grain handling capabilities in Quebec, P&H continues to provide innovation and value for growers, partners, and customers across the country.
