At every stage of the supply chain, we have strong quality management and food safety processes to deliver our customers the quality and specification of every single order.
Our people across our network have specific skills and knowledge to meet the needs of all our customers. With our focus on sustainability, safety, quality and reliability; our people, customers and communities can be confident in everything we do.
Storage and handling
Our fully-integrated, efficient and flexible supply chain meets the needs of our growers, buyers and end use customers.
Growers deliver commodities into our 55 storage sites located across South Australia and western Victoria. Our network has total storage capacity of approximately 10 million tonnes.
We provide multiple segregations for the grain, which ensures that growers capture value for each load they deliver depending on the variety, grade and quality specifications.
Careful storage and handling, close to the point of origination, allows us to maintain the quality of what we receive and ensure it is available when consumers need it.
We manage the grain on behalf of growers until they choose to sell through our network to one of the more than 45 buyers in our network including 18 exporters as well as domestic end users.
Our logistics network provides customers with rail and road transport services to move commodities efficiently between upcountry sites and to port terminals.
We have six bulk grain export port terminals strategically located along the coastline of South Australia. These port terminals can efficiently load various size vessels.
Viterra’s packing and processing facilities provide a large range of containerised export options from locations around southern Australia.
Quality management and food safety are integrated into all of our activities and operations. We undertake comprehensive grain classification and residue analysis. We test commodities multiple times along the supply chain to uphold the quality and safety to maintain market access for growers and buyers.
We have a dedicated state of the art laboratory, accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities, which oversees all testing. All of our export facilities are registered and certified by the Australian Government Department of Agriculture.
