Robust Hub-and-Spoke Distribution Network Saves Farmers Time
We have implemented a hub-and-spoke distribution network that gives us a competitive edge in the industry. AgraCity was the first company in Western Canada to offer products directly to farmers, disrupting the traditional distribution channel.

Reduced Distribution Costs Increases Farmers Return on Investment
AgraCity has moved away from typical distribution models common in the agriculture industry. These traditional models have decentralized warehouses that have numerous pinch points, additional handling fees, third-party warehousing and various other factors that increase the costs for the farmers.
COST EFFECTIVE
Like other global players such as Walmart, Lowe’s and Fedex, we have found that this method of distribution reduces transportation costs, improves cycle times, and reduces inventory resulting in cost savings that we can pass along to our farm customers.
DEDICATED TEAM
Our main warehouse in Saskatoon boasts over 68,000 sq ft of space supported by a logistics and warehousing team of over 25 people. We compliment that with 15 tractor and trailer units as well as 3- and 5-ton trucks used to hotshot product out when you need it in a hurry.
ALWAYS FOR YOU
This distribution center supports strategically placed hubs that help with timely in-season changes and decisions when necessary. So, everything from crop restriction changes that come last minute or poor weather, we will always be there to assist you, every step of the way.
A Focus on Understanding Western Canada Agriculture

Listen to Brian Rumberg, Chief Innovation Officer, showcase AgraCity’s warehouse capabilities.
Farming is a time and capital-intensive business, and farmers need to focus on yields and return on investment in order to be successful. Finding a trusted crop input partner focused on understanding local crop issues is one of the most important business decisions a farmer will make.
For example, kochia has become a major problem for farmers in Western Canada over the past few years. AgraCity has recently introduced Foxxy® Extreme, an effective kochia control.
AgraCity’s head office is in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, including administration, sales, manufacturing, warehousing and logistics. We focus the challenges local farmers face, constantly strengthening our line up of high-performance crop inputs. We focus on understanding crop issues, so farmers can focus on what they do best – farming.
