Saskatchewan-based Alliance Grain Traders, Inc. (AGT) has announced it has acquired the majority of assets of Quebec-based CLIC International, Inc. – an ethnic and traditional retail food packager, canner, retailer, and distributor. The acquisition is a strategic move to further AGT’s plans to move the company away from being a commodity exporter to a food company. AGT plans to distribute a broad line of pulses and ethnic foods to the North American and global retail and food service sectors. AGT is a processor of value-added pulses, staple foods and ingredients for export and domestic markets, and a supplier of retail packaged and canned foods.
