Bunge Global SA announced the completion of its merger with Viterra Limited on July 2, forming a new expansive and integrated agribusinesses in the global food, feed and fuel supply chain.
The combined company brings together two complementary networks of assets, origination regions, and commodity portfolios, enhancing the ability to serve both producers and consumers in increasingly complex global markets.
“Today is a defining moment for our company and our global team,” said Greg Heckman, CEO of Bunge. “By uniting our capabilities, we’ve created a stronger organization with greater reach and responsiveness to meet the evolving needs of our customers and supply chains worldwide.”
Key strategic and operational highlights:
- Expanded Global Footprint: The merger connects key crop origination regions—including the Americas, Europe, Australia, and the Black Sea—to high-demand consumption markets across Asia, Africa, and beyond.
- Integrated Value Chains: The combination enhances logistics, trading, and risk management capabilities through vertical integration and broader supply coverage across all major crops.
- Diversified Crop Portfolio: The company’s global network now supports a wider variety of agricultural commodities, increasing flexibility in changing market environments.
- Financial Synergies: The deal is expected to drive capital efficiency and cost benefits through improved logistics, optimized trading strategies, and a more stable earnings base supported by global diversification.
With the merger complete, Bunge and Viterra will begin integration efforts to align teams, operations, and strategic functions. The company aims to deliver long-term value to growers, partners, and stakeholders while maintaining a focus on reliability and performance across the ag supply chain.
