History
AGT was founded in 2001 as SaskCan Pulse Trading by Murad Al-Katib, the present CEO.[1] He received funding from the Arslan family of Turkey, owners of the Arbel group, a Turkish pulse-processing company.[1]
In 2007, the Agtech Income Fund acquired SaskCan, and then renamed itself Alliance Grain Traders.[2] As a result of this deal, Alliance Grain Traders was listed on Toronto Venture Exchange.[2]
In 2009, Alliance Grain Traders converted from an income fund to a normal corporation. Also in 2009, Alliance Grain Traders bought the Arbel group for $104 million, including its pasta business.[2][3]
In 2011, the company took over South Africa based Advance Seed.[4] Since 2012, it has shifted into the packaged foods business.[5] In particular, it has expanded production at its facility in Minot, North Dakota.[6]

On February 5, 2019, the company announced shareholder approval for a privatization deal led by its President and Chief Executive Officer, Murad Al-Katib, in consortium with Fairfax Financial and Point North Capital.[9] On April 17, 2019, the transaction to take the company private was closed.[10]
