Sollio Cooperative Group announces the appointment of Alexandre St-Jacques Burke as CEO of Sollio Agriculture

Pascal Houle, CEO of Sollio Cooperative Group, is announcing the appointment of Alexandre St-Jacques Burke, FRM, as CEO of Sollio Agriculture. He will assume his duties in December 2026.

This appointment follows the recent announcement that Casper Kaastra will be stepping down from the position, having made a remarkable contribution to the growth and development of Sollio Agriculture in recent years. 

"I am pleased to be able to count on Alexandre to succeed him. Alexandre has been with our organization for nearly twenty years, both at Sollio Agriculture and at Sollio Cooperative Group. That experience has helped him develop a thorough understanding of our agriculture industry, our cooperative model, and the realities faced by the farmers and cooperatives in our network.

Throughout his career, he has demonstrated his ability to combine vision, leadership, and rigorous management. His knowledge of the organization, the industry's challenges, and the network's priorities will be a significant asset for continuing Sollio Agriculture's development and supporting its growth in the years ahead."

"It is with humility and great enthusiasm that I return to working with our teams in the agri-business division," says Alexandre St-Jacques Burke.
